Valieva did not return the medals that were deprived of due to doping disqualification
Russian skater Kamila Valieva did not return the medals taken from her for doping. It is reported by TASS with reference to the source.
“At the moment, none of the medals have been redistributed and transferred to the athletes,” the agency’s source said.
In January 2024, the sports arbitration court (CAS) disqualified Valiev for four years. In the sample of the skater from December 2021, traces of the prohibited drug Trimetazidin were discovered. She was deprived of the gold medals of the European Championship, the Russian Championship and the team of the Olympic Games – 2022 (together with the entire national team).
The gold of the European Championship should go to the Russian woman Anna Shcherbakova. The title of Russian champion-2022 should receive Alexander Trusov. In addition, Valieva should return the medals of two more championships of Russia, as well as three stages and one final of the country’s Grand Prix.
