South African cyclist David George has made an application to South African Institute for Drug-Free Sport (SAIDS) for a two-month reduction on his two-year sanction, as reported by Cycling South Africa.
This was made as per the provisions in the SAIDS rules (Article 10.5.3 Substantial Assistance in Discovering or Establishing Anti-Doping Rule Violations).
The Panel has considered the application and has determined that a two-month reduction be granted in respect of the sanction imposed.
George’s period of ineligibility has therefore terminated on September 4, 2014, which makes him eligible to compete with immediate effect.
