CAS opens Anti-Doping office for Paris 2024 Olympic Games

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) says it has opened an Anti-Doping office for its temporary Anti-Doping division in Paris, France for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

In a press release sent to Sportsnow.com.ng, CAS says the temporary office is one of two that has become operational from July 16, 2024. The other temporary division is the CAS Ad Hoc Division which will resolve any legal disputes that arise during the Games.

CAS says the Anti-Doping Division will adjudicate anti-doping related matters arising during the Games.

‘This structure, in operation since the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, will handle potential doping cases referred to it by the International Testing Agency (ITA) in
accordance with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Anti-doping Rules,’ wrote CAS in the press release.

It says both offices will be located within the Paris judicial court in the 17th arrondissement of Paris and will operate from 16 July 2024 until 11 August 2024.
