According to the IWF press service, the teams were suspended from the upcoming Games, as Thai and Malaysian athletes were convicted of violating anti-doping rules three times in one calendar year.

On March 24, it was decided to transfer OI-2020 to 2021 due to the spread of coronavirus. Games in Tokyo were originally supposed to be held from July 24 to August 9, 2020.

Vitold Banka said earlier that WADA cannot extend the disqualification of athletes due to coronavirus.
