Kenya in the dock again

BERLIN. — Athletics powerhouse Kenya are once again in the eye of a doping storm just a month out from the Olympic Games after the latest investigation by German television channel ARD and The Sunday Times.

Saturday’s documentary alleges doping is rife at the elite training centre in Iten.

Previous joint research by ARD and the British newspaper led to the banning of the Russian athletics’ team from the Games for state sponsored doping.

Over the past three years some 40 Kenyan athletes have failed doping tests, shredding their reputation for probity. — AFP.
