SEA Games drug-free so far

HANOI: Four hundred urine samples sent to laboratories in Beijing for testing during the SEA Games have all come back negative, state media said on Saturday.

All gold medal winners and randomly selected silver and bronze medalists have been tested for the use of banned performance- enhancing substances.

The samples were flown by delivery and logistics giant TNT for testing at International Olympic Committee-approved laboratories in the Chinese capital, but no traces of illicit substances were found, the Vietnam News daily said. --AFP
