The ITA, on behalf of the International Boxing Association (IBA), confirms that Caroline Cruveillier has been suspended for a 24-month period, effective from 6 April 2024 (date on which the athlete was provisionally suspended) until 5 April 2026 after committing three whereabouts failures within a twelve-month period as defined in article 2.4 of the IBA Anti-Doping Rules (IBA ADR).
The sanction was issued by the ITA on behalf of the IBA in accordance with article 8.3.3 of the IBA Anti-Doping Rules (and equivalent provision in the World Anti-Doping Code). ¹ The athlete’s results have been disqualified from 16 June 2023 onwards.
¹ When an athlete does not challenge the assertion of an ADRV and does not request a hearing, anti-doping organisations have the possibility to issue a written decision sanctioning the athlete and imposing the applicable consequences without having to refer the case to a hearing panel. This is provided in articles 8.3.2. and 8.3.3. of the IBA Anti-Doping Rules and 8.3 of the World Anti-Doping Code.
