In December 2017 the Brazilian Doping Control Authority has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the bodybuilder after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substances Canrenone, Clenbuterol, Drostanolone, Stanozolol and Testosterone.
After notification a provisional suspension was ordered and the Athlete filed a statement in his defence. He admitted the violation and denied the intentional use of the substances, whereas he claimed to be unaware of the anti-doping rules.
The Rapporteur finds that the presence of the prohibited substances had been established in the Athlete's sample and accordingly the he committed and anti-doping rule violation.
The Rapporteur deems that the violation was intentional and considers that there had been delays in the proceedings not attributed to the Athlete.
Therefore the TJD-AD decides on 12 February 2019 to impose a 4 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete, starting on the date of the sample collection, i.e. on 9 December 2017.
