Accused tested negative for drugs at London games

Oscar Pistorius was drug-tested before and during last year’s Paralympic Games in London, the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) said, adding that on both occasions the results were negative.

“Oscar was tested twice in London, first on 25 Aug in an out-of-comp (competition) test and then also 8 Sept in an in-comp test. Both negative,” said IPC director of media and communications Craig Spence.

“He’ll also have been tested by IAAF (International Association of Athletics Federations) and South African anti-doping agency last year.”
