The Royal Dutch Cycling Federation (Koninklijke Nederlandse Wielren Unie, KNWU) has reported an anti doping rule violation against this person after he tested positive for the prohibited substance clenbuterol in the A and B samples.
Person was tested before without problems and the concentration clenbuterol in the samples was very low.
Person was heard for the committee and stated the positive test results were caused by clenbuterol contaminations in meat during his stay in Mexico prior to the anti-doping control. His statement was supported by literature about the illegal use of clenbuterol in the Mexican food industry. Person’s travel report showed he had been cautious with food during his stay in Mexico to avoid contaminations.
The Disciplinary Committee considered person’s statement acceptable and decided to acquit person of violation the Anti-Doping Rules without sanction. KNKF should bear half de cost, made for person’s defence.
