It became a fifth of 13 female athletes who participated in the finals who received a retrospective sanction for violation of anti -doping rules, according to AIU. Tomashova, who is now 49 years old, took fourth place in the race and won silver after the first two finished and subsequently disqualified. On September 3, CAS disqualified Tomashov and decided to cancel the results of the Russian woman from June 2012 to January 2015.
"We are striving to protect the integrity of sports, and even if the events have long gone, we will carefully investigate possible violations," said AIU Chairman David Houman. Two -time Tomashova World Champion was one of the seven Russian athletes who received a two -year disqualification for falsification of doping samples in 2008.
Bahrain athlete Maryam Yusuf Jamal, who took third place in London, won a gold medal after Turkish duo Asli Chakir Alptekin and Hamze Bulle, who took first and second places, were disqualified several years later. The disqualification of Tomashova means that Ababa Aragawa from Ethiopia is now the owner of a silver medal, and American Shennon Ruberi, who took sixth place, received bronze. Recall that the recent Olympics in Paris also marked with several scandals.
