In May 2019 the Brazilian Doping Control Authority (ABCD) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the powerlifter after his sample tested positive for multiple prohibited substances: Androsterone, Drostanolone, Etiocholanolone, Metandienone, Stanozolol, Testosterone and its Adiols.
After notification the Athlete only submitted an admission to the ABCD. Hereafter he didn't respond to the communications, nor filed a statement in his defence, nor attended the hearing of the Brazilian Sports Justice Anti-Doping Tribunal (TJD-AD).
The Rapporteur finds that the presence of multiple prohibited substances has been established in the Athlete's sample and accordingly that he committed an anti-doping rule violation.
In his submission the Athlete only admitted the violation and failed to demonstrate that the violation was not intentional. Furthermore the Rapporteur determines that there had been substantial delays in the proceedings not attributed to the Athlete.
Therefore the TJD-AD Panel decides to impose a 4 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete, starting on the date over de sample collection, i.e. on 23 February 2019.
