TJD-AD 2020-004 Disciplinary Decision - Ju-Jitsu

In December 2018 the Brazilian Doping Control Authority (ABCD) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Athlete after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substances 19-nortestosterone, 19-noretiocholanolone (Nandrolone), Androsterone, Etiocholanolone, Testosterone and its adiols.

Also ABCD reported that the Athlete had attemped to tamper with any part of the Doping Control. The Control Officers reported that the Athlete acted suspiciously and had discarded a plastic holder containing a yellowish liquid, apparently urine, in the trash between the Doping Control Station and the venue. ABCD considered both violations as one single violation and did not pursue the charge of tampering against the Athlete.

After notification a provisional suspension was ordered whereas the Athlete didn't respond to any of the ABCD communications. Prior on the Doping Control Form the Athlete had mentioned the use of supplements, hormone replacement therapy and a marrow donation.

Following the Athlete's failure to filed a statement in his defence the case was referred to the Brazilian Sports Justice Anti-Doping Tribunal (TJD-AD).

The Rapporteur establishes that ABCD has jurisdiction and that the Athlete under the Rules anyhow was subjected to submit to sample collection despite he was unregistered as an Athlete with the Brazilian Ju-Jitsu Confederation.

The Rapporteur finds that the presence of multiple prohibited substances had been established in the Athlete's sample and accordingly that he committed an anti-doping rule violation.

Without the Athlete response the Rapporteur deems that the Athlete failed to demonstrate that the violation was not intentional, nor how the substances had entered his system. There are no mitigation circumstances and there was evidence of attempted tampering with the sample collection.

Therefore the TJD-AD Panel decides on 13 March 2020 to impose a 4 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete, starting on the date of the provisional suspension, i.e. on 27 December 2018.
