Indian sprinter Dutee Chand, renowned as India’s fastest female athlete and holder of the national 100m record, has been handed a significant blow with a four-year ban following her failure in an out-of-competition dope test.
The test revealed the presence of selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs), leading to the decision to suspend her from competitive sports.
Chand’s ban, which commences from January 3, 2023, stems from her failed out-of-competition dope test for SARMs, which occurred on December 5, 2022.
The verdict, delivered by the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA), found Chand in breach of “article 2.1 and 2.2 of the NADA,” resulting in a four-year ineligibility period under “article 10.2.1.1 of the NADA ADR 2021.”
