June 30, 1010
On 30 June 2010 the NRB Disciplinary Committee decided to impose a 2 year period of ineligilibility on the Person after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance methylhexaneamine (dimethylpentylamine). The Person failed to prove that the supplement he used was contaminated with the prohibited substance and how the substance came into his body.
Hereafter in December 2011 the Person filed an appeal for revision of the decision of 30 June 2010 with the NRB Revision Committee.
The Person requested the Committee to reduce the imposed sanction and argued that under the 2010 WADA Prohibited List the substance methylhexaneamine (dimethylpentylamine) became a specified stimulant with the possibility to impose a reduced sanction in disciplinary proceedings.
Considering the circumstances and regarding the prohibited substance as specified stimulant the Committee concludes that the Person acted with no significant fault and without intention to enhance his performance.
Therefore the NRB Revision Committee decides on 27 January 2012 to annul the decision of 30 June 2010 and to impose a 6 month period of ineligibility on the Person.
Fees and expenses for this Committee shall be borne by the Person.
