ANAD Comisia de Audiere 2009_18 ANAD vs Angelica Raluca Rӑducu
November 24, 2009
In 24 November 2009 the Agenţia Naţională Anti-Doping (ANAD), the National Anti-Doping Agency of Romania, decides to impose a 2 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete Angelica Raluca Rӑducu after her A and B samples tested positive for the prohibited substance stanozolol.
Hereafter in February 2010 the Athlete appealed the decision of the ANAD Hearing Commission with the ANAD Appeal Commission.
The Athlete argued that she was of good-will, had no intention to enhance her sport performance and requested to start the imposed period of ineligibility on the date of the sample collection instead of the date of the decision.
The ANAD Appeal Commission finds that the Athlete didn’t explain how the prohibited susbstance entered her body; used the substance in order to get more muscles for bodybuilding; and failed to establish the lack of significant guilt or negligence in this case.
Therefore on 8 April 2010 the ANAD Appeal Commission decides to dismiss the Athlete’s appeal and to uphold the decision of the ANAD Hearing Commission of 24 November 2009.
