DCI Rounds On International Racket Developing Fake Doping Reports Of Kenya Athletes
Forgery suspect believed to be part of an international conspiracy ring, out to tarnish Kenya’s image in the athletics world, was Monday morning arraigned before Jomo Kenyatta International Airport Court.
Elias Kiptum is accused of developing false doping allegations against Kenyan athletes.
According to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), Kiptum’s arrest and subsequent arraignment followed investigations by the DCI Anti-Nacortics Unit detectives, who since September 2020 were pursuing a criminal syndicate which has been working with foreign journalists in fabricating information on doping in Athletics Kenya.
“The perpetrators had prepared documents purporting that doping was being promoted and encouraged by several state agencies in the country, with the aim of having Kenya suspended from participating in the forthcoming Olympics in Japan.” Said DCI
“In a thorough operation by DCI sleuths on April 18, a raid conducted at Kiptum’s residence in Iten, within Elgeyo Marakwet County saw the confiscation of several documents bearing ADAK and AK letter heads, alongside suspicious bank slips.” Added DCI
Appearing before the JKIA court, Kiptum denied all 12 charges leveled against him and remains in custody pending bail ruling which has been scheduled for Tuesday April 27.
