Facts
The Anti-doping Authority Netherlands (Dopingautoriteit, DA) had reported an anti doping rule violation against the athlete, respondent 2014109. During a boxing event the athlete was selected to provide a sample for drug testing.
History
After her match the respondent could not produce enough urine for a valid sample, after 1,5 hour her trainer told her to go home. She had urgent family matters and her child was waiting for her. They were informed about the consequences by the Doping Control Officer (DCO) and did not sign the doping control form.
Afterwards the Royal Dutch Boxing Federation (Nederlandse Boksbond, NBB) failed to open proceedings, for which reason the DA felt obligated to report this case.
In case of potential anti-doping violation, the DA had to send promptly a notication to the athlete that further investigation will follow. However the DA failed to send this notification.
Despite the sample was not valid, it was analysed anyway and turned out to be negative.
The ISR Disciplinary Committee declares this case as inadmissible.
Decision
- This case is dismissed.
- The DA has to bear the administrative costs for the procedure.
