In August 2021 the Dutch Royal Strength Sport and Fitness Federation (KNKF) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Person after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance Drostanolone.
After notification the Person failed to file a statement in his defence, nor did he request to be heard for the ISR-NBB Disciplinary Committee. Accordingly the Committee renders a decision without a hearing based on the Parties' written submissions.
The Disciplinary Committee finds that the presence of a prohibited substance has been established in the Person's sample and accordingly that he committed an anti-doping rule violation.
The Committee holds that Person failed to respond and consequently refrained to explain how the substance entered his system. Neither did he establish that the violation was not intentional, nor grounds for a reduced sanction.
Therefore the ISR-KNKF Disciplinary Committee decides on 6 April 2022 to impose a 4 year period of ineligibility on the Person, starting on the date of the provisional suspension, i.e. 9 August 2021.
Fees and expenses for this committee shall be borne by the Person.
