RUSADA will hold a hearing on Valieva's case in the near future

“We expect that soon RUSADA will have to organize hearings.

I think they will do it soon.

If we are dissatisfied, then we can always take the opportunity to apply directly to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, ”Banka is quoted as saying by Inside the Games.

According to him, in July, RUSADA requested documents and materials in order to follow the case.

Recall that during the 2022 Olympic Games, at the end of the team tournament, it became known that Valieva’s doping test on December 25, 2021 gave a positive result for trimetazidine.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport allowed the 15-year-old athlete to participate in a personal tournament.

Earlier, RUSADA reported that it was decided to disqualify Angelina Simakova for two years for violating anti-doping rules.
