News: Sanjita Chanu talks to PS post coming out clear on doping charges

With a strong dedication and unstoppable resilience one can turn things in their favour and today the justice has prevailed for Indian weightlifter Sanjita Chanu who has been cleared of her doping charges by International Weightlifting Federation. International Weightlifting Federation has dropped the doping charge against Indian weightlifter Khumukcham Sanjita Chanu due to “non-conformities” in the handling of her sample but the Commonwealth Games gold-medallist has also demanded an apology and compensation for the “trauma” she has endured. The IWF made the decision based on the recommendation of the World Anti-Doping Agency. The 26-year-old, who claimed innocence since the beginning, was informed about the final verdict via an e-mail, signed by IWF’s legal counsel. It said that IWF was told by Wada on May 28 that there were “certain non-conformities” at the time of the analysis of Chanu’s sample.
