Khaleej Times Online? I think this beats the Industani Times. :shock:
The source is actually much more of a shocker than the news.0 -
The question of interest is whether the Mekon cops a life ban for two offences (Tour and Olympics), or whether he gets away with two years for a first offence because he hadn't been notified of the Tour offence before being tested at the Olympics.0

That would assume this is the Mekon's first infringement. It isn't. He'll get a long ban.0

You can stick to your pitiful western cycling media. The papers from Asia is where it's at.

The point is that the Tour samples, for which he's currently serving (and fighting) a 2-year ban, weren't tested until after the Olympics. I believe there's a rule that a second test can't be considered a second positive unless it's after the rider was notified of the first positive.andyp wrote:That would assume this is the Mekon's first infringement.

Regardless of what the UCI or WADA may wish, any sanctions would ultimately need to be justifiable in the civil courts. Do you think the police would be able to get away with setting up 4 speed cameras on a single stretch of road, assigning 4 sets of penalty points, and banning the driver?0 -
He also copped a ban for amphetamines in the past.0

The amphetamine ban is the one I'm referring to, not the Tour and Olympic double jeopardy problem.0
