No deal! – Three-man panel rejects Mullings’ retesting request
A request from lawyers representing Jamaican sprinter Steve Mullings to have his B Sample retested was denied by a three-man disciplinary panel of the Anti-Doping Commission (JADCO) at a hearing held at the Institute of Jamaica in Kingston on Wednesday.
The three-man panel of attorney-at-law Lennox Gayle, Dr Japheth Ford and Peter Prendergast denied the request to have the B Sample retested at a laboratory in the United States after both the A and B samples had tested positive for the presence of a banned diuretic furosemide earlier this year.
Mullings’ legal team had earlier been granted an initial adjournment in August to have the B Sample retested.
The Observer had learnt last month, however, that the sample that was tested at the the Doping Control Laboratory at the INRS-Institut Armand-Frappier Research Center in Quebec, Canada, a World Anti-Doping Agency approved lab had not been released.
