LAUSANNE, Switzerland—The Russian Olympic Committee has lost an appeal against its suspension by the International Olympic Committee.
The governing body for the Winter Olympic sport of biathlon, meanwhile, has confirmed its president OlleDahlin is under investigation by Austrian authorities. “I have not received any formal notification of any investigation at this stage, but I am aware of politically motivated speculation and innuendos. I am totally shocked by these allegations which are completely without foundation, and I refute them all in the strongest possible terms. I will not hesitate to take any legal action necessary to uphold my good name and reputation,” Dahlin said in a statement released by the IBU.
