Dmitry Shlyakhtin, head of RusAF, has said Sunday, February 19, 2017 to Sport Express that probably Sergey Kirdyapkin and Olga Kaniskina (today Deputy Director of the Olympic Saransk School) could no longer return to compete in international and national competitions.

Both athletes already had not been admitted to the races last June when were held in Cheboksary the Russian Road Walk Championships and recently was not allowed to compete at the Winter Championship in Sochi.

The reason is that they have not returned the prize money received in the races in which their results were then disqualified for doping.

But probably they could compete only in Mordovia Cup.
