The motion towards former Aisan Kogyo company group athlete Rodgers Kwemoi of Kenya for violation of guidelines towards anti-doping was lately finalized. The penalties imposed towards Kwemoi that had been introduced on Could 17 by the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU), an unbiased unit of World Athletics (WA), had been as follows:
- Suspension from competitors for a six-year interval starting 8 August, 2023
- annulment of all competitors outcomes from 18 July, 2016 to eight August, 2023
In compliance with this ruling, all of Kwemoi’s leads to Nationwide Company Federation competitions in the course of the specified interval will likely be annulled. As well as, the Aisan Kogyo group outcomes from ekidens during which Kwemoi competed for them can even be annulled. All official outcomes will likely be up to date to maneuver people and groups that completed behind Kwemoi and Aisan Kogyo in these competitions up one place. The precise outcomes to be annulled:
Nationwide Company Observe and Discipline Championships
・sixty fourth version, 2016 – 10000 m, ninth
・sixty fifth version, 2017 – 10000 m, 2nd
・66th version, 2018 – 5000 m, 4th, 10000 m, 4th
*For the sixty fifth and 66th editions, Aisan Kogyo’s total group rating and putting will likely be adjusted to mirror Kwemoi’s disqualification.
Nationwide Company Males’s Ekiden Championships (New Yr Ekiden)
・62nd version, 2018 – 2nd Leg, eighth / Crew total, tenth
・63rd version, 2019 – 2nd Leg, 1st / Crew total, thirtieth
・sixty fourth version, 2020 – 2nd Leg, ninth / Crew total, Sixth
・66th version, 2022 – 2nd Leg, Twentieth / Crew total, twenty second
*Official outcomes on the Company Federation web site will likely be up to date to mirror these disqualifications as quickly as possible.
Nationwide Company Federation, 4 June, 2024
Translator’s word: The 2021 New Yr Ekiden was the Aisan Kogyo’s Twentieth time making the New Yr Ekiden and Twentieth-straight look there. The disqualification of its 2018, 2019 and 2020 outcomes eliminates that achievement, which it had celebrated on its group website on the time. Its Sixth-place end in 2020, now canceled, was a group document and its first and solely time ever making the eight-deep podium.
