In September 2014 the Fédération française de ballon au poing (FFBP) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the respondent M44 after he refused to provide a sample for drug testing. The respondent initially didn’t produce enough urine for a sample and refused to wait to produce a complementary sample.
After notification and an ordered provisional suspension the FFBP failed to settle the case within the time limit, the AFLD opened disciplinary proceedings against the respondent hereafter.
Considering the circumstances and without a statement in his defence the AFLD decides on 24 September 2015 to impose a 3 year period of ineligibility on the respondent starting on the date of the provisional suspension, i.e. on 6 December 2014.
