Kunjarani appeals for revocation of ban

In a letter sent on Monday night to the international body, Kunjarani stated that the substance (strychnine) reportedly found in her urine sample is a stimulant and not a performance-enhancing drug.

She also expressed dissatisfaction with the procedure for testing her urine sample, according to Indian Weightlifting Federation sources.

Kunjarani has appealed for revocation of the ban imposed on her on the basis of testing her 'A' sample.

The Asian Weightlifting Federation had told the IWF to ask Kunjarani to submit in writing before Wednesday if she wanted her 'B' sample to be tested. She could face a two-year ban if the second sample also showed presence of the banned substance.
