Athletistic/ Figure skating. The Olympic ice dancing champion of the Turin (Italy) Games in 2006, Russian figure skater Tatyana Navka, approved Eteri Tutberidze’s idea of using a lie detector in the Kamila Valieva doping case. During an interview with Leonid Slutsky on the YouTube channel “Komment.Show”, Eteri Georgievna said that she wanted to understand the situation by using a lie detector on everyone involved in the process in her student’s case.
“Why not? It seems to me that in this story all options can be used to give Kamila Valieova the opportunity to be acquitted, so that the girl can finally be left behind. Moreover, this proposal comes from headquarters from the figure skater herself, so it’s a really good idea.
But I doubt that the IOC, WADA and CAS will listen to these comments. Although the idea is interesting,” Navka said, as quoted by RIA Novosti Sport.
Kamila Valieva won a gold medal in the team figure skating competition at the 2022 Olympic Games in Beijing, China. Later it became known that a banned drug, trimetazidine, was found during the doping test of a 15-year-old Russian girl dated December 25, 2021. But since the test results came too late, the athlete could not be suspended from participation in the 2022 Olympic Games.
