In the wake of the scathing report by the World Anti-Doping Agency’s Independent Commission that revealed massive cover-ups in Russian’s track and field federation as well as its doping agency, FINA has announced that the drug samples collected at this year’s world championships will be moved from their present home at the controversial Moscow laboratory to a facility in Barcelona.
The Independent Commission’s report claimed that the Moscow Anti-Doping Center was at the heart of the Russian doping scandal, where director Grigory Rodchenkov destroyed doping samples and accepted bribes to hide positive drug tests. That center was where the 645 samples from the FINA world championships were analyzed, according to FINA, though the samples have not been compromised. FINA announced today that all 645 samples will be moved to a WADA-certified laboratory in Barcelona.
Though no positive drug tests came from the world championships, samples must remain intact in the event that they are needed for future analysis. FINA also said that all drug samples collected in out-of-competition visits and stored in the Moscow laboratory will also be removed.
