NADO Flanders 2017 Disciplinary Council 20177482 - Appeal
November 24, 2017
On 27 June 2017 the NADO Flanders Disciplinary Commission decided to impose a fine and a 4 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete after the police had searched the Athlete’s residence and found multiple prohibited substances: Boldenone, Metenolone, Nandrolone, Testosterone and Trenbolone.
Hereafter in July 2017 the Athlete timely objected to the decision rendered in absentia and the Disciplinary Commission decided to reopen the case. Against the police and at the hearing the Athlete admitted the possession and use of the substances for the purpose of fitness and sports enhancement.
The Commission deems that the Athlete intentionally had used the prohibited substances and accordingly that he had committed an anti-doping rule violation.
Therefore the NADO Flanders Disciplinary Commission decides on 5 September 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.
