This was stated by IBU spokesman Christian Winkler. According to him, this room is intended only for events dedicated to races and athletes who won prizes.
At the World Championships in Italian Anterselva, local police searched the room of Russian athletes Alexander Loginov and Evgeny Garanichev, as well as personal trainer Loginov Alexander Kasperovich. A visit by law enforcement officials was associated with a suspicion of doping.
Earlier it was reported that Loginov spoke about the decision to withdraw from the mass start and new visits by the Italian police.
