His surname is not disclaimed. According to non-official information, he is not a medal-holder of the London Olympics.
This sensational information was published by BelaPAN in the evening on August 15.
Meanwhile, the Belarusian side is getting prepared to appeal against the decision of the International Olympic Committee on disqualification of the shot put Olympic Champion Nadzeya Astapchuk, informs the National Olympic Committee.
Let us remind you, on August 13 there was information at the web-site of the International Olympic Committee that a golden medal was taken away from Belarusian Nadzeya Astapchuk. An anabolic steroid was found in her drug tests.
Previously, Deputy Minister for Sports and Tourism Cheslau Shulha stated that his office still considered Nadzeya Astapchuk an Olympic champion. In the opinion of the state leader's Spokesman Pavel Lyohki, the sportswoman should not be deprived of the Homeland Order of 3rd degree, which she got for winning the golden medal in London. Director of the National Anti-Doping Agency Alyaksandr Vankhadla informed that the NADA and the Belarusian Track and Field Federation would conduct their own investigation of the incident.
