IOC 2016 IOC vs Oleksandr Drygol

Mr. Oleksandr Drygol is an Ukrainian Athlete competing in the Men’s hammer throw event at the London 2012 Olympic Games.

In 2016, the IOC decided to perform further analyses on certain samples collected during the 2012 Olympic Games. These additional analyses were performed with analytical methods which were not available in 2012.

In July 2016 the International Olympic Committee reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Athlete after his 2012 A and B samples tested positive for the prohibited substance dehydrochlormethyltestosterone (turinabol). After notification the Athlete submitted that he accepted the test results; that he will not file a statement in his defence; and he waived his right to be heard.

The Commission concludes that the Athlete has committed an anti-doping rule violation consistent with intentional use of a prohibited substance specifically ingested to deliberately improve performance. The fact that the metabolite of a doping substance, which is a “classical” doping substance, was found, supports this consideration.

Therefore the IOC Disciplinary Commission decides on 10 November 2016 that the Athlete Oleksandr Drygol:

1.) is found to have committed an anti-doping rule violation pursuant to the IOC Anti-Doping Rules applicable to the Games of the XXX Olympiad in London in 2012 (presence, and/or use, of Prohibited Substances or its Metabolites or Markers in an athlete’s bodily specimen),
2.) is disqualified from the Men’s hammer throw event in which he participated upon the occasion of the Olympic Games London 2012, in which he ranked 34th.
3.) The IAAF is requested to modify the results of the above-mentioned event accordingly and to consider any further action within its own competence.
4.) The National Olympic Committee of Ukraine shall ensure full implementation of this decision.
5.) This decision enters into force immediately.
