ETHIOPIA - Life in prison for Ethiopian runner Besu Sado
Ethiopian runner Besu Sado was sentenced to life in prison after being found guilty of killing her husband. Former athlete Teshale Tamru was stabbed to death in their house by two men hired by Besu Sado and her two brothers in August 2022. The five people were charged but one of her brothers and the two suspects are still on the loose.
Asked about the reason for the murder, Beso Sadu said her husband did witchcraft on her family, her mother and her brothers to prevent them from succeeding.
Besu Sado clinched a silver medal in the 1500m at the 2015 All African Games and finished 9th at the Olympic Games in Rio the following year (PB 3:59.47 at the Zürich Diamond League in September 2016). She later switched to road races, clocking 2:21:03 in her first marathon attempt in October 2019 in Amsterdam (4th). In April 2022, she finished 3rd of the Paris marathon in 2:23:16.

not here...

 

those idiots from Sky Italia has the tv rights but doesn't broadcast this meet...and the stream is geoblocked, of course (not a real problem, but still just another "censorship act" by skysport here in Italy -it will be the same with Baseball's WBC...exclusive rights, but they will show only the games of the Italian team and the final 4...it's always the same with international football...there's no competition they show in full according to their tv rights...and they just can't use the online service to make up for the lack of linear tv channels).
