Over the previous few months and through this trial there have been three separate hearings which have confirmed my innocence. A number of months of interviews and investigations culminated with three consultants going by means of each element by means of a proper listening to. They issued an intensive ruling explaining why they decided I used to be not at fault, with clear proof supplied and my cooperation all through.
Primarily based on such a sturdy course of, each the ITIA and the Italian Anti-Doping Authority accepted the reasons and waived their proper to attraction. I perceive that these items have to be completely investigated to keep up the integrity of the game all of us love. Nevertheless, it’s obscure what will likely be achieved by asking a special panel of three judges to take a look at the identical information and paperwork once more. That stated, I’ve nothing to cover and, as I’ve completed all summer time, I’ll cooperate absolutely with the attraction course of and supply no matter could also be essential to as soon as once more show my innocence. For the reason that case is now pending adjudication at CAS, I can’t remark additional,” he wrote.
