WADA statement on the Andrus Veerpalu case decision

2013-04-01 14:54 WADA

March 27, 2013 - WADA is disappointed with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) decision on the Andrus Veerpalu case.

It is of course pleasing and important that CAS has accepted the reliability of the hGH test method. However, we are concerned at the conclusion reached by CAS about the Decision Limits applied for hGH. This hGH test was developed with leading experts in the hGH field.

We received the court’s reasoning yesterday, and will not comment more specifically until we thoroughly analyze the findings and its consequences.
