National
Anti Doping Agency (NADA) has banned javelin thrower Amit Dahiya for four years
for evading sample collection and trying to cheat officials during the 2nd
National Javelin Throw Open Championship 2019 held at SAI Centre in Sonipat.
NADA had
issued the charge of notice to Dahiya on July 16 for violating rule 2.3 of the
NADA. The doping agency presented the case to the Anti-Doping Disciplinary
Panel (ADDP) on January 9 where the athlete’s justification was found to be
unsatisfactory.
NADA said
the ADDP has now passed an order to suspend him for four years from the date of
his provisional suspension.
