Impenetrable tests

The insufficient number of evidence in the report of the independent commission of the World Anti-Doping Agency under the leadership of Richard McLaren is explained by the destruction of many doping industry of Russian athletes. This was reported by the portal of INSIDETHEGAMS with reference to the WADA statement.

“Unfortunately, many samples were disposed of by the Moscow Anti -Doping Laboratory, which means that they cannot be double -checked,” the statement said. “McLaren made additional requests to the Russian authorities, but they remained unanswered. There are simply no evidence from the McLaren report. The anti -doping community should clearly realize that it can not be obtained and that it cannot be obtained based on, based report ".

On December 9, Canadian lawyer McLaren presented the second part of the report prepared for WADA. The investigation showed that over 1,000 Russian athletes in almost 30 types of Olympic and Paralympic sports were involved in the doping program of Russia. After that, the IOC announced the start of the investigation against 28 Russian athletes participating in the Games in Sochi.

On December 31, in the New Year's appeal, the head of the IOC Thomas Bach said that the International Olympic Committee would take additional measures to combat doping after studying the McLaren report. Bach called the conclusions of this document "shocking." According to the head of the IOC, in 2016 there was a threat of the Olympic movement, and the IOC intends to resist this threat. "The most actual threat is presented in a shocking McLaren report regarding doping and doping manipulations in Russia. These data caused damage to the reputation and integrity of sports. We created two commissions that are engaged in this issue. They will give all the parties a chance to be heard, after which the IOC will make a decision on further measures and sanctions," the head of the IOC said.

All 254 urine samples taken from Russian athletes in Sochi, as well as all samples from the 2012 London Olympiad, will be checked in the IOC. "These additional measures are only fair for the authority of the Olympic Games and for the mental peace of the athletes," the head of the IOC noted.
