Presenter and commentator Dmitry Guberniev told that he is awaiting a decision from the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) on the appeals of biathletes Svetlana Sleptsova and Evgeniy Ustyugov and the annulment of their results at the Sochi Olympics.
The International Biathlon Union (IBU) disqualified Ustyugov and Sleptsova for two years in February 2020 based on data received from a Moscow laboratory. Sleptsova was found guilty of using ostarine, Ustyugov – oxandrolone. The results presented by Ustyugov from August 27, 2013 until the end of the 2013/2014 season were canceled. Thus, the result of the Russian team in the Sochi relay was canceled, and Ustyugov was deprived of the mass start gold and relay bronze, won at the 2010 Olympic Games in Vancouver.
On Monday, the IBU announced that CAS had rejected Ustyugov and Sleptsova’s appeals against the tribunal’s decision in their anti-doping rule violation cases.
– Unfortunately, we were waiting for this. Section: “This has never happened before, and here it is again.” Personally, I have long accepted the fact that these results will be canceled. Nothing extraordinary happened, “Guberniev told .
Sleptsova and Ustyugov have already completed their sports careers.
