In relation to what emerged yesterday from eavesdropping published by the Gazzetta dello Sport, or that Gottlieb Taschler has contacted Michele Ferrari to allow her son Daniel to take Epo, arise spontaneously certain questions.
Thursday 11 December 2014 9 minutes reading time
It should be made a premise. The story dates back to the second half & agrave; of 2010 and the 'beginning of 2011, so before that Michele Ferrari received by dell''Usada, the' Lifetime dall''esercizio inhibition of the profession in professional sports (occurred nell''estate 2012).
However, the doctor was already & agrave; long been rumored for the 'use of performance-enhancing drugs Since & eacute; the cyclist Filippo Simeoni had accused him of having provided Epo in 2002. Moreover Ferrari had undergone a process in which, after being convicted at first instance, was acquitted on appeal for the 'charges of doping, while the crime of sporting fraud had lapsed.
This produces a series of questions on the obscure points, which is the genesis of the meetings, the 'evolution of the relationship, the case D & uuml; King Ibu policy.
Not that these questions need to be met by the parties concerned or necessarily lead to an affirmative answer, it is simply spontaneous reflections on the whole story.
A) THE GENESIS OF MEETINGS
According to the Journal wrote the "first contact", dated 20 July 2010, & egrave; occurred with a phone game from Gottlieb Taschler. So:
1) HOW ARE ENTERED IN CONTACT Täschler GOTTLIEB AND MICHELE FERRARI? There are two possibilities: either Taschler knew gi & agrave; the number, or it has retrieved some modo.2) Täschler HE KNEW ALREADY '' THE NUMBER OF FERRARI MICHELE, FROM WHAT TIME AND WHY ''? That is: Taschler and Ferrari had already & agrave; reports before July 2010? If s & Igrave ;, what kind and when they started? 3) IF NOT Täschler KNEW THE NUMBER OF MICHELE FERRARI, AS HAS OBTAINED? Or: & egrave; possible that other people are involved? C '' & egrave; someone who can & ograve; have done as an intermediary between Taschler and the doctor? If s & Igrave who ;, & egrave; / who are they?
& Nbsp;
B) The 'EVOLUTION OF RELATIONSHIP
There are more & ugrave; news about the 'evolution of the relationship between Michael and Ferrari family Taschler after January 2011. Therefore:
4) AS LONG & Egrave; CONTINUED COOPERATION BETWEEN Täschler AND FERRARI? That is: it's been four years by the facts established by wiretaps, as & egrave; collaboration evolved from 2011 to today?
5) The 'LACK OF DANIEL Täschler BY SCENE IN BIATHLON & Egrave 2011-2012; CONNECTED TO EACH OTHER? Daniel Taschler start to the 2011 season - '' 12 and earns the call for the World Cup & Öland; stersund where for & ograve; does not end the 'individual (30 November 2011). That sar & agrave; the 'last international race of his winter.
6) & Egrave; POSSIBLE THAT THE COLLABORATION Täschler-FERRARI IS TIME UNTIL 2014? That is: & egrave; Taschler possible that Daniel was "followed" by the doctor even after its inhibition in life from sports profession, which occurred in 2012?
& Nbsp;
C) THE POSSIBLE D & uuml; RR-CONNECTION
In February 2014, the Austrian cross-country skier Johannes D & uuml; rr, found positive all''Epo, dichiar & ograve; who had obtained the drug "by someone in a former Yugoslav republic." That is, he was very vague. Whereas Johannes D & uuml; rr & egrave; the brother of Daniel Taschler is the 'last question:
7) IS THERE A CONNECTION BETWEEN THE POSITIVITY '' ALL''EPO OF JOHANNES D & uuml; RR AND THE RELATIONSHIP Täschler-FERRARI? That is: & egrave; possible that D & uuml; rr has procured the 'Epo in turn by Michele Ferrari and has provided this vague justification on their source to avoid inguaiare the father and / or brother?
D) POSITION DELL''IBUIl January 29, 2014, after the news of positivity & agrave; all''Epo Iryna Starykh, Ekaterina Iourieva and Karolis Zlatkauskas, President dell''IBU Anders Besseberg dichiar & ograve; the Norwegian newspaper VG: "Do not & egrave; a coincidence that they have been tested. We were aware of these athletes for a long time." So:
8) THERE IS A LIST OF ATHLETES AT RISK? If "it was not a coincidence that they have been tested" and "we were aware of these athletes for a long time", it means that the 'Ibu somehow had already & agrave; pointed the viewfinder on them. How? Is there a list of athletes at risk? Or what & egrave; the way in which the athletes are identified to be tested in a manner that "no coincidence"?
9) Täschler DANIEL WAS NOT SUSPICIOUS? & Egrave; NEVER BEEN TESTED? It should be noted at the time as Daniel Taschler has never failed a doping control. One wonders if they have ever been sampled all''atleta South Tyrol (of 'Moreover Karolis Zlatkauskas did not get results cos & Igrave; dissimilar in career) and if he ever took the test, or if tests have shown to be supported negativo.La positivity & agrave; "Deferred" Alexander Loginov, derived from the fact that the 'Ibu is using new test methods to detect the' Epo, suggests that they may be re-tested samples still stored. There are samples of Daniel Taschler on which to make these new controls?
10) How will '' The 'IBU TO INTERCEPTION INVOLVING GOTTLIEB Täschler? We should not forget the fact that pi & ugrave; grave of the story & egrave; represented by the role of Gottlieb Taschler within the international federation, where he serves as vice-chairperson to the activities & agrave; sports. There will be consequences in the light of these lengthening shadows on him?
