Amine Laalou running in the 800 metres at the 2009 World Championships
in Berlin where he finished 5th, in the men's final.
It was reported on August 3, 2012 that Laalou has been banned from the
2012 Olympics after testing positive for furosemide, a diuretic used to hide the
presence of performance-enhancing drugs. A two-year ban from competition
was subsequently confirmed by the I.A.A.F.
In April 2016 he tested positive for EPO in an out-of-competition test and was
handed an 8-year ban set to end on 10 May 2024. (Wikipedia)
