A decision in the case of World Athletics against Wilson Kipsang Kiprotich has been issued by the Disciplinary Tribunal.
On 10 January 2020 the AIU issued Mr Kiprotich with a Notice of Charge for committing an Anti-Doping Rule Violation in connection with Whereabouts Failures and Tampering.
The Disciplinary Tribunal consisting of Conny Jorneklint as sole arbitrator determined that an Anti-Doping Rule Violation (ADRV) was established pursuant to Articles 2.4 and Article 2.5 of the 2019 IAAF Rules, and as a result, a four-year period of Ineligibility is imposed. Mr Kiprotich’s competition results between 12 April 2019 and 10 January 2020 are disqualified.
