Venäläisyleisurheilijoiden tapausten käsittely etenee CAS:issa

Urheilun kansainvälinen välitystuomioistuin CAS on julkaissut lehdistötiedotteen, jossa se käsittelee venäläisyleisurheilijoiden tapausten etenemistä. Kaikissa tapauksissa kyse on siitä, että kansainvälinen yleisurheiluliitto IAAF on eri mieltä Venäjän antidopingtoimikunnan kanssa siitä, miltä ajanjaksolta urheilijoiden kilpailutulokset pitäisi dopingin takia mitätöidä.
