In September 2022 the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Pakistani wrestler Ali Asad after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance Metandienone. Following notification a provisional suspension was ordered while the Athlete failed to respond to the CGF communications.
Because the Athlete failed to respond within the set deadline the CGF determines that the Athlete was deemed to have admitted the violation, waived his right to a hearing and accepted related consequences.
Therefore the CGF decides on 12 October 2022 to disqualify the Athlete's results obtained at the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games. United World Wrestling (UWW) is requested to consider any further action within its own competence.
