In May 2017 NADO Flanders has reported two anti-doping rule violations against the Athlete for possession and use after the police had searched the Athlete’s residence and found the prohibited substance Methandienone.
After notification the Athlete failed to attend the hearing of the NADO Flanders Disciplinary Commission and a Decision was rendered in absentia of the Athlete.
Since the Athlete had admitted against the police the use and possession of the substance for the purpose of fitness the Disciplinary Commission finds that the Athlete had committed an anti-doping rule violation.
Therefore the NADO Flanders Disciplinary Commission decides on 10 July 2017 to impose a fine and a 4 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete, starting on the date of the Decision.
Fees and expenses for this Commission shall be borne partially by the Athlete.
