In July 2021 the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) on behalf of World Athletics reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Iraqi Athlete Danah Hussein after her sample tested positive for the prohibited substances Stanozolol and Clenbuterol.
The Athlete could not explain the test result and stated that her Coach Karokh Salih Mohammed was responsible for her nutrition, supplements, medication and vitamins.
The Coach acknowledged that he had provided these products to the Athlete and alleged that he was unaware they contained prohibited substances.
After further investigations the Coach admitted in June 2022 that he had provided Stanozolol and Clenbuterol pills to the Athlete in June 2021.
Consequently in November 2022 the AIU reported multiple anti-doping rule violations against the Coach for Possession, Trafficking, Administration and Complicitiy. Following notification the Coach admitted the violations, waived his right for a hearing and accepted a provisional suspension.
Finally in December 2022 the Coach signed and submitted the Admission of Anti-Doping Rule Violations and Acceptance of Consequences Form and accepted the sanction proposed by the AIU.
Therefore the AIU decides on 20 February 2023 to impose a lifetime period of ineligibility on the Coach, starting on the date of the provisional suspension, i.e on 16 November 2021.
