Jamaica’s World and Olympic champion Shelly-Ann Fraser has escaped being banned for two years following her positive drug test earlier this year.
This as the IAAF Doping Review Board has confirmed their agreement with the Jamaican Tribunal dealing with the case that there were circumstances in the athlete’s case which may be exceptional and special hence a reduction in the two year sanction.
The Tribunal will now decide on the appropriate sanction to be imposed.
Meanwhile, former Holmwood Technical athlete Bobby-Gaye Wilkins has been slapped with a two year ban.
Wilkins was found to have an adverse analytical finding in relation to samples collected at the World Indoor Championships held in Doha, Qatar, March 12 this year.
Wilkins’ ban took effect starting on April 9, 2010.
