In August 2020 the Brazilian Doping Control Authority (ABCD) reported an anti-doping rule violation against the parathlete swimmer after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance Enobosarm (Ostarine) in a low concentration.
The TJD-AD Panel concluded that the violation was not intentional and was the result of a contaminated supplement. By majority the TJD-AD decided on 6 May 2021 to impose a warning on the Parathlete.
Hereafter ABCD appealed and the TJD-AD Appeal Panel decided on 5 July 2021 to refer the case back to the TJD-AD Disciplinary Panel and to annul the parathlete's provisional suspension because of established failures in the Appealed Decision.
When referred back, the TJD-AD Disciplinary Panel agrees that the source of the positive test was a prescribed supplement that became contaminated in a compounding pharmacy.
In view of the evidence and the Parathlete's conduct the Panel is again devided whether to impose a sanction of 4 months or only a warning on the Parathlete.
As a result by majority the TJD-AD decides on 1 October 2021 to impose a warning on the Parathlete.
