A decision in the case of World Athletics against Marina Arzamasova has been issued by the Disciplinary Tribunal.
On 27 July 2020 the AIU issued Ms Arzamasova with a Notice of Charge for committing Anti-Doping Rule Violations contrary to Article 2.1 and Article 2.2 of the ADR in connection with the Presence of a Prohibited Substance in the Athletes Sample and the Use of a Prohibited Substance.
The Disciplinary Tribunal consisting of Dr Despina Mavromati (Chair), Janie Soublière and Paul Ciucur determined that an Anti-Doping Rule Violation (ADRV) had been established pursuant to Article 2.1 of the 2019 IAAF Rules, and as a result a four-year period of Ineligibility is imposed, commencing on 29 July 2019. Ms Arzamasova’s competition results between 29 July 2019 and 22 August 2019 are disqualified.
