It was reported in
December that 28-year-old British
Olympic sprinter Nigel Levine had allegedly tested positive for the banned
asthma drug clenbuterol.
Levine will be offered a UK Anti-Doping hearing to defend
himself.The European indoor gold medalist has not
competed since he broke his pelvis in a motorbike
crash in Spain in January 2017, an accident which also involved
compatriot James Ellington
Clenbuterol is on the World Anti-Doping
Agency's prohibited list because it is deemed a performance-enhancing drug and
can induce weight-loss.
