INBA / Investigation leads to Life Ban‏

This is an email from 'INBA' Message:The joint partnership of INBA and ASADA has brought a new level of protection for our drug-free competitors and greater deterence for drug cheats. Do you realise INBA competitor samples are analysised for 770 banned drugs including more than 70 anabolic steroids in 2009. Plus, ASADA operate a Random Testing program incorporating INBA Members. Moreover, our partnership with ASADA means all intelligence gained from Customs, State Police and Federal Police are provided to ASADA own investigation unit to pursue cheats.

Recently an INBA Member was banned for possession and use of testosterone across all WADA compliant sports for two years until 19 January 2011. In addition, INBA applied a further Life Ban under our Misconduct rule as the INBA consider the use of a known bodybuilding drug by an INBA Member as a gross voilation.

Significantly the discovery did not come from a drug test but through information supplied by the Victoiran Police Force to ASADSA. A search warrant was executed on Mr Kapitan’s home by Victoria Police on 26 November 2007. Police searched the premises and discovered six syringes containing testosterone in his refrigerator as well as a container of used syringes in his bedroom. ASADA Chairman Richard Ings said this case was significant as it relied on cooperation between ASADA and the Victoria Police to detect a serious doping violation. “ASADA investigators, working in close partnership with Victoria Police, identified and established a serious doping offence without reliance on a positive doping test,” Mr Ings said “This case further demonstrates the critical role that partnerships between law enforcement agencies and ASADA play in fighting doping in sport.”
