Stahurskaya gets two-year ban
Former world champion Zinaida Stahurskaya has been banned
for two years for doping. The 34 year-old Belarusian tested
positive at three European races last year -
once to anabolic steroid stanozolol and twice to hormone
testosterone.
"It is regrettable, but we believe that it will teach her a
good lesson," Belarus cycling coach Anatoly Miklashevich
told AP on Monday. Stahurskaya, who is currently
training in Italy, won the 2000 world road race title and
the women's edition of the Tour de France in 2002. It is not
her first positive test for doping substances, nor her
first suspension: At the Giro d'Italia Femminile in 2001,
she returned a positive test for a diuretic, and at the
Circuito di Massarosa in 2003, for ephedrine. She was out
of competition for four and two months respectively.

Well yes, this is old news, but you missed the article about
her getting popped for dealing steroids? Like I said,
Belarus bad girl, but she served her time, and she's
finished like 38th in the worlds.

Former world champion Zinaida Stahurskaya, currently serving a two-year
suspension for testing positive to anabolic steroid stanozolol and
testosterone, has now been charged with dealing in illegal doping
products.
According to tuttobiciweb.com, the NAS (Anti-Narcotics Group) of
Firenze, Italy sequestered the 35 year-old Belorussian from her home in
Pistoia three weeks ago. They found large quantities of doping products
including anabolic steroids, most of which were Russian-origin or bought
on the black-market, believing they were intended for sale.
The former world champion and women's Tour de France winner tested
positive at three races in 2005, once to anabolic steroid stanozolol and
twice to hormone testosterone. Stahurskaya would have been allowed to
return to racing in June 2007 after her ban ended, but it is now likely
that she will face trafficking charges in Italy under anti-doping law
376/2000, and be issued a life-sentence.
