20 Nov 2010, Guangzhou, China: The Olympic Council of Asia has confirmed the new distribution of medals for the men’s -81kg judo competition following the disqualification of silver medallist Shokir Muminov (Uzbekistan) on a doping violation. The two bronze medal-winners, Islam Bozbayev (Kazakhstan) and Masahiro Takamatsu (Japan), will both receive a silver medal.

No bronze medal will be awarded and there will be no new medal ceremony. Kim Jae Bum (Korea) won the gold medal on November 14 ahead of Muminov, whose urine sample was found to contain an illegal stimulant.

This was the first anti-doping rule violation of the 16th Asian Games, with the OCA having conducted around half of the planned 1,500 tests.
