Figure skating|The Swiss court did not look favorably on the Russian’s efforts.
Swiss the supreme court has dismissed the figure skater who was convicted of doping Kamila Valieva appeal of his suspension. Told about it Champions.
At the beginning of the year, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) banned Valieva for four years from 25 December 2021 and rejected all her results.
At the same time, Cas dismissed Russia’s complaint about the country’s loss of the gold medal in the team competition. Valieva was part of the team.
Valieva took her case to the Swiss Supreme Court. The court unequivocally considered that there were no grounds for Valieva’s appeal.
Valieva the appeal relied on the fact that the skater was a 15-year-old child. According to his lawyers, the punishment was unreasonably harsh for a minor, and he should not be punished on the scale of adults.
The lawyers also tried to argue that the case and its public treatment received too much media attention despite the fact that Valieva is a minor.
“Appellant again confuses appellate court and federal court. In this case, the arbitrators cannot apply the thematic norms of these rules,” the court’s decision summarizes.
Legal also considered Valieva’s complaint about the excessive coverage of her case to be groundless.
According to the court, Cas had the right to publish several announcements about the case, because the matter made headlines at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing. Valijeva competed in the Games and was already a well-known person naturally during the Games.
