UK Athletics hands over Alberto Salazar report to UKAD

Follow Newsd On  

London, April 30 (IANS) The UK Athletics have handed over the full 2015 Alberto Salazar report to UK Anti-doping agency. UKAD chief executive Nicole Sapstead had earlier asked for the full original report after being provided with only an edited summary.

“UKA can confirm that the 2015 report has been provided to UKAD,” the athletics board said in a statement on Wednesday.

“UKA remains fully committed to protecting the integrity of the sport and the pursuit of clean athletics and we will continue to assist UKAD with any further queries.”

Salazar, who also worked with multiple Olympic gold medallist Mo Farah previously, was banned for four years by the anti-doping agency last year.

Salazar has always denied any wrongdoing and has also appealed in the Court of Arbitration fighting against his suspension for breaking anti-doping policies.

The American trainer helped Mo Farah win golds in 5,000m and 10,000m races at London Olympics. Farah, however, has never failed a drug Test in his life despite working with Salazar’s ‘Nike Oregon Project’ from 2011 to 2017.
