New Delhi, 27/8: Indian discus thrower Navjeet Kaur Dhillon, who won a bronze medal at the 2018 Commonwealth Games in Gold Coast, has been handed a three-year ban by the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) after she tested positive for a banned drug.
As per AIU, which is the independent body created by World Athletics to manage all integrity issues — including doping and age fraud, Navjeet had tested positive for Dehydrochloromethyltestosterone (DHCMT), an anabolic-androgenic steroid prohibited by World Athletics.
The drug was infamously used to enhance field performances by some East German athletes during the late 1960s
