There was the presence of prohibited substances (terbutaline) in his sample," AIU said in a statement on Saturday. With over 60 athletes have been nabbed in the last four years, Kenya is among the top four countries which have runners with the highest cased of doping. Others are Ukraine, Ethiopia and Venezuela. The news of Kipkemoi will further fan the call for criminalization of the immense in the country.

In the last 90 days, nine Kenyans have been banned for doping-related charges. Kipkemboi last won the 2018 Rotterdam Marathon with a personal best time of 2:05:44. Xinhua
