From "People Daily" (Kenya)

 

The Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) has published the latest list of athletes who have been banned for doping and non-doping violations.

The Kenyan athletes banned are Brenda Chebet, Agnes Mumbua, Mathew Sawe, Zena Chemutai, Hannah Wairimu, Cynthia Kendi, and Eliud Kibet.

Mumbua, Kibet, and Sawe have been sanctioned for four years, and their ban will expire in 2026. Wairimu, Kendi, and Brenda have been banned each for three years while Chemutai's ban will run for one year.

Chebet, 19, is the youngest of the athletes on the latest list and has shown signs of a promising future given how she has performed in the previous assignments.

At the African Championship held in Mauritius last year, she finished fourth in the 1500m before a six-place finish in the 800m final.

 Natalia Maliszewska (short track) lost the appeal and did confese that it was her fault for missing three doping controls, when she should be available for controllers, she is banned for 14 months from May 2023, so, she will be able to prepare for 2024/2025 season.

A male British and a Swiss athlete (Gender not stated) set to be charged soon. 
 

I know one male British athlete who had the same coach as Okagbare and a Swiss athlete who part of that group.

I’m not sure it is. He has already been publicly banned wouldn’t they name him?

It seems in relation to the UK athlete that jigsaw identification is possible. If I'm correct about that, it's going to be heartbreaking.
