In August 2015 Japan Anti-Doping Agency (JADA) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Athlete J-4074 (the Athlete) after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance dehydrochlormethyltestosterone. After notification a provisional suspension was ordered.
The Athlete stated that the violation was non intentional but the Panel concludes that the Athlete failed to explain how the substance came into his body and he had igonored the warnings on the labels of the supplements he used.
Considering that the Athlete was sanctioned before in November 2013 for the use of clenbuterol the Japan Anti-Doping Disciplinary Panel decides on 27 October 2015 to impose an 8 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete as second violation starting on the date of the provisional suspension, i.e. on 21 August 2015.
