I was thinking some minutes about the following question, but I don't really know the answer: Who was the last Turkish-born athlete (in Athletics) of international class that was never tested positive for doping? First, I thought it should be Esref Apak, only to find to out that he actually had a positive test in 2013

All those cases is a great proof that the system of checking the athletes
need to be more strict and the punishment need to be more harsh the point is that athletes will compete without drugs rather they will be caught and the story will be rolling all over again

the fact that only years after they find that those athletes used is upseting

So you can dope and since it was only the first time, they'll let you walk away with this.

 

Shocking

Well, this was a bit simplyfied comment, I read that he argued the substance came from a meat he eat somewhere in Colombia, ITF accepted his explanations and since it was his first delict they let him go

Again this "I ate tainted meat"... my God, they're adult pro players, not juniors. They should look what they eat if they are aware meat in often tainted in their countries.
