Bach calls doping conspiracy ‘attack on integrity of sport’
International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Thomas Bach has said McLaren’s latest report reveals "a fundamental attack on the integrity of the Olympic Games and on sports in general".
In a statement, it pledged to re-test all Russian competitors’ samples from the 2014 Winter Games in Russia, and IOC President Thomas Bach told reporters that the IOC would now also test all the samples of the Russians who took part in the 2012 London Olympics.
The second and final part of an independent report by Canadian lawyer Richard McLaren for the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) provided evidence that more than 1,000 Russian athletes competing in summer, winter and Paralympic sport were involved in or benefited from a conspiracy to hide positive drug tests.
