九名運動員服用興奮劑被禁賽 Nine athletes banned for doping offenses

     A total of nine athletes, including Olympic bronze medalist Nataliya Tobias, have tested positive for "sophisticated doping" offenses, the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) has confirmed.

國際田徑聯合會（IAAF）已確認總共有九名運動員，包括奧運會銅牌得主納塔利婭·託拜厄斯檢測“複雜興奮劑”呈陽性。

     Six of those athletes were caught using a new "biological passport" method, which builds up a profile of each individual over a prolonged period of time.

6的運動員被發現在過去相當長一段時間內，用了新的“生物護照”的方法爲每人建立了一個配置文件。

     The remaining three, including Tobias who came third in the women's 1500 meters in Beijing four years ago, were suspended after further analysis of samples they gave at the World Championships in Daegu last year.

剩下的三名運動員，包括在四年前的北京奧運會上獲得女子1500米銅牌的託拜爾斯，在對去年大邱世界錦標賽提供的樣本做了進一步分析後被停賽。

     "Today's announcements underline the IAAF's continued and unwavering campaign against doping in athletics," IAAF President Lamine Diack said in a statement on their official website.

國際田聯主席拉明·迪亞克在其官方網站的一份聲明中說：”今天的發佈強調了國際田聯持續堅定的反對在競技體育中使用興奮劑的運動“。

     "They demonstrate the IAAF's commitment to use advanced methods to detect doping and to enforce increased sanctions when justified.

他們顯示了國際田聯”使用先進方法檢測興奮劑，必要時強行增加制裁“的承諾。

     "We will not stint in our resolve to do everything in our power to eradicate cheating."

”我們不會停止我們盡一切力量剷除作弊行爲的決心。“

     The IAAF said they had been collecting samples from various athletes in the build up to the Olympics and would conduct 200 more biological passports during the Games.

國際田聯說，他們已收集了並建立了不同的運動員參加奧運會的樣本，並將在奧運會期間實施200多個生物護照。

     That method accounted for six bans, for Morocco's Abderrahim Goumri, Greece's Irini Kokkinariou, Turkey's Meryem Erdogan, and three Russians -- Svetlana Klyuka, Nailiya Yulamanova and Yevgenina Zinurova, the 2011 European Indoors 800m champion.

這種方法佔了6個禁令，有摩洛哥的Abderrahim Goumri，希臘的 Irini Kokkinariou, 土耳其的Meryem Erdogan，還有3名分別是俄羅斯的Svetlana Klyuka, Nailiya Yulamanova 和 Yevgenina Zinurova，他2011年的歐洲室內800米冠軍。

     Along with Tobias, fellow Ukrainian Antonina Yefremova was charged after synthetic testosterone was found in their systems, while Bulgaria's Inna Eftimova tested positive for a synthetic growth hormone.

與託拜爾斯一起的還有烏克蘭同胞Antonina Yefremova被指控在他們的體內發現合成睾丸激素，而保加利亞的Inna Eftimova 經檢測，其人工合成生長激素呈陽性。

     All three athletes admitted the offense and waived their right to a "B" sample, meaning their four-year bans were halved.

這三名運動員都承認了罪行，並放棄了他們對“B”樣本的權利，這意味着4年的禁令可以減半。

     The six caught via the "biological passport" method were flagged as suspicious in 2009 and were found to have persistently used banned substances over a long period, the IAAF said.

國際田聯稱，通過“生物護照”的方法捕獲的6人在2009年被標記爲可疑人物，並發現他們長期堅持使用違禁物質。

     Four of the six -- Erdogan, Klyuka, Yulamanova and Zinurova -- admitted their offense and waived their right to a "B" sample, meaning their original four-year bans were cut in half.

他們中的四個， Erdogan, Klyuka, Yulamanova and Zinurova，已經承認他們的罪行，並放棄他們對”B“樣本的權利，這意味着他們四年禁賽減半。

     The IAAF said Goumri had recently received a four-year ban by the Moroccan Athletic Federation, but was permitted to appeal as the decision had not yet been ratified by the IAAF.

國際田聯表示，最近Goumri收到了摩洛哥田徑聯合會4年的禁賽令，但允許上訴的決定尚未獲得國際田聯批准。

     Kokkinariou has been banned for two years by the Greek Athletic Federation but the IAAF said they were appealing to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to have it doubled on the grounds of "aggravating circumstances."

Kokkinariou已經被希臘田徑聯合會禁賽兩年，但國際田聯表示，他們會以加重處罰情節爲由向體育仲裁法庭提起訴訟。”

     It was not immediately clear whether any of the nine athletes were part of Olympic teams set to participate in London 2012.

目前尚不清楚九位選手中是否有2012年倫敦奧運會代表隊的成員。
