The National Anti-Doping Association
(NADA) on Monday gave clean chit to
wrestler Narsingh Yadav in doping case
and allowed him to participate in the
Rio Olympics.
A panel of the NADA, reviewing
Narsingh’s case, said the wrestler is a
victim of sabotage as there is no fault
and negligence on his part.
“There is no fault and negligence on
Narsingh Yadav’s part, he is a victim of
sabotage done by a competitor,” said
NADA DG Naveen Agarwal while
reading out the verdict.

“We kept in mind that in the past, till
June 2, none of his samples were
positive. It was inconceivable that one-
time ingestion would be of benefit.
Therefore the panel is of the view that
the one-time ingestion was not
intentional,” said Agarwal.
The panel concluded by saying that
the wrestler deserves the benefit of
article 10.4 of NADA’s anti-doping
code. --- Read More: Narsingh Yadav gets clean chit from NADA, to participate in Rio 2016 Olympics | The Indian Express
