A sign with the logo of the Russian Anti-Doping Agency (RUSADA) is on display outside its office in Moscow, Russia December 9, 2019. REUTERS/Shamil Zhumatov/File photo Acquire Licensing RightsSept 22 (Reuters) - The Russian Anti-Doping Agency (RUSADA) will face more sanctions for failing to address non-compliance issues, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) said on Friday. Following executive committee meetings in Shanghai, WADA said it also found the Pan American Sport Organisation (Panam Sports) and the South Africa and Bermuda Anti-Doping Agencies in non-compliance with the WADA code. Both South Africa and Bermuda's non-compliance is due to a failure to appropriately implement the WADA Code into their legal systems. South Africa could be under a particularly tight deadline when it comes to the Rugby World Cup.

☆ Australia's Bol cleared of doping after false positive test

MELBOURNE, Aug 1 (Reuters) - Australia's anti-doping authority has dropped its investigation into athlete Peter Bol in the lead-up to the world championships after finding his positive test for synthetic erythropoietin (EPO) was wrong. The provisional suspension was lifted a month later after the 'B' sample of his test did not match its 'A' sample. Sport Integrity Australia (SIA) continued its investigation, though, saying the 'B' sample was an "atypical finding" and not negative. "As a result, Sport Integrity Australia has taken the decision not to progress an anti-doping rule violation for this sample. "Sport Integrity Australia will now await outcomes of the WADA review of the EPO review process," it said.

☆ WADA's 'Operation LIMS' passes 200 sanctions of Russian athletes
  + stars: | 2023-05-18 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
May 18 (Reuters) - More than 200 Russian athletes have been sanctioned following the ‘Operation LIMS’ investigation into Moscow's anti-doping laboratory with more bans to come, the World Anti-Doping Agency said on Thursday. The suspensions are the result of data and samples retrieved by WADA's Intelligence and Investigations team into the Moscow Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). A total of 203 Russian athletes have been sanctioned by 17 anti-doping organisations with an additional 73 charged. "The continued success of WADA’s ‘Operation LIMS’ investigation is a testament to the significant work being conducted by the Agency’s Intelligence and Investigations, and Legal Affairs departments," WADA president Witold Banka said in a statement. WADA’s Executive Committee voted in 2018 to reinstate RUSADA subject to a number of conditions that included access to all data from the LIMS.

"She got her pilot training with the money she got from the insurance after her husband's death," Bartaula told Reuters.

[1/2] A rescue team recovers the body of a victim from the site of the plane crash of a Yeti Airlines operated aircraft on January 15, 2023, in Pokhara, Nepal January 16, 2023. "Her husband, Dipak Pokhrel, died in 2006 in a crash of a Twin Otter plane of Yeti Airlines in Jumla," airline spokesman Sudarshan Bartaula told Reuters, referring to Khatiwada. "She got her pilot training with the money she got from the insurance after her husband's death." A pilot with more than 6,400 hours of flying time, Khatiwada had previously flown the popular tourist route from the capital, Kathmandu, to the country's second-largest city, Pokhara, Bartaula said. "On Sunday, she was flying the plane with an instructor pilot, which is the standard procedure of the airline," said an Yeti Airlines official, who knew Khatiwada personally.

REUTERS/George Frey/FilesSYDNEY, Sept 23 (Reuters) - The World Anti-Doping Agency will add the painkiller tramadol to the list of banned substances for athletes in competition from 2024 and has maintained its ban on cannabis after a review.

WADA said the delay in introducing the ban until 2024 was to allow the communication of the implications of it to athletes, their entourages and medical staff. After requests from some "stakeholders", however, WADA agreed to review the cannabis ban but decided on Friday to maintain it because the use of the drug "violated the spirit of sport".

REUTERS/Christinne MuschiSYDNEY, Sept 20 (Reuters) - The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) are still monitoring testing operations in Russia ahead of the decision on whether to reinstate the country, despite complications caused by the Ukraine war, president Witold Banka said on Tuesday. The existing two-year ban from international sport imposed by WADA on Russia for widespread, state-sponsored infringements of doping regulations expires at the end of the year. "We are monitoring this issue very closely and last month I expressed my will that they have to accelerate the process. More and more it is becoming a key pillar of what we do as the World Anti-Doping Agency."
