WADA starts compliance procedures against RUSADA over 'inconsistent' data

LONDON: The World Anti-Doping Agency has opened compliance proceedings against the Russian Anti-Doping Agency over what it said were inconsistencies in data supplied to WADA in January, WADA said on Monday.

"The ExCO was informed that further investigation ... of inconsistencies in Moscow Laboratory data had led WADA to open a formal compliance procedure against RUSADA on 17 September 2019," WADA said in statement. Jonathan Taylor, chair of WADA's Compliance Review Committee, presented the information to the executive committee in Tokyo on Monday.WADA has been under huge pressure to bring Russia into line since a 2015 report outlined evidence of systematic, state-backed doping in Russian athletics.

Last September, the WADA executive committee voted to reinstate RUSADA before it had fulfilled the requirements laid out in a"Roadmap to Compliance", which included handing over the data from the Moscow lab.
