"Vadim Devyatovskiy faced a possible lifetime ban from all sports after a 2013 retest of a sample he gave as a hammer thrower at the 2005 world championships came back positive.
A three-year legal tussle ensued, with Devyatovskiy defying a provisional suspension to be elected as head of athletics in Belarus. He was previously banned for doping from 2000-02."

"MOSCOW (AP) — The national anti-doping agency of Belarus says that 800-meter runner Anis Ananenka has been banned for four years for doping.
Ananenka came fourth in the 800 at the 2013 European indoor championships, missing a medal by one-hundredth of a second. His ban is dated from June 16.
The agency said on its website that Ananenka had tested positive for the banned substance GW1516, a drug which has not been ruled safe for use by humans.
Studies found GW1516 to boost endurance in rodents, but also that it caused rapid development of cancer in test subjects.
The drug has previously been found in use by professional cyclists and by Russian Olympic race-walking champion Elena Lashmanova, who was banned for two years last year."
If they'll take GW1516, they'll take anything.

"The Belarus athletics federation (BFLA) has suspended race-walker Anna Drabenya, after she tested positive for trimetazidine. Often sold under the brand name Vastarel MR, trimetazidine is a metabolic modulator used to treat angina prohibited under Section S4 of the World Anti-Doping Agency’s (WADA) 2016 Prohibited List. Drabenya, who won the 20km walk at the 2014 Belarus Race Walking Cup, will be banned for two years from 11 April 2015 until 27 April 2017, read a BFLA"
I wonder what her biological passpost looks like....
Where is she?
She hasn't run since the Istanbul Marathon in late 2016.
She's switched coaches and now trains under Wolfgang Heinig (former coach of Katrin Dörre-Heinig and current coach of Gesa Felicitas Krause).
Habiba Ghribi is now also coached by Heinig.

Heinig is dodgy as heck though as well. Old school east German coach, insists on being called sir by his athletes and definitely knows how to dope given that he grew up as part of one of the most large scale state run doping programs in existence.
Also had a great talent for burning out young athletes. Gesa is pretty much the only one who survived his group over the past 10 years. The rest either quit or changed coaches.
I thought he (Heinig) had retired last season?
He retired from his position as coach of the German athletics association and I think also from his position as coach of Eintracht Frankfurt - not that there's anyone left of his group in Frankfurt anyway. Still coaches Gesa Krause though and apparently Habiba Ghribi. Can't comment on the veracity of the above statement on Ghribi.
Bump. She won 2024 Grandma's Marathon.

Amazing course record and huge gap to second. Would have been top 7 again at the Olympics if politics hadn't got in the way
