The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation (IC of the Russian Federation) called unfounded the statements of the chief informant of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Grigory Rodchenkov about the existence in Russia of a state program of doping support.

The investigation states that Rodchenkov himself doped athletes and changed the test results, having remote access to the bank of the laboratory.

"Based on the results of the interrogations, more than 700 athletes, coaches, medical workers of the Russian national teams living in the entire territory of the Russian Federation, employees of the All-Russian Sports Federations, the Center for Sports Training of the Russian National Teams, RUSADA and the Anti-Doping Center, the investigation refuted McLaren's arguments and Rodchenkov's allegations of existence in Russia a certain state doping program to win the maximum number of medals by athletes, as well as the opening of the "Beach Kit" bottles at the Winter Olympics from ING-samples of Russian athletes and substituting them bioassay positive to negative, "- said Svetlana Petrenko, a representative of the UK.

According to her, it was established that Rodchenkov himself distributed drugs to athletes and coaches.

As well as evidence was received about the vulnerability of the laboratory database, to which Rodchenkov had remote access. According to the UK, WADA representatives were also aware of the vulnerability of the database, which even before 2014 had pointed Rodchenkov about the need to block remote access.

"Having the rights to access the database and the results of testing athletes up to June 2016, they had the opportunity to change them uncontrolled to create false evidence," Petrenko said..

Recall, based on testimonies Rodchenkov WADA launched an investigation into the doping system in Russia. The evidence is set forth in a report by Richard McLaren, on the basis of which Russian athletes were not allowed to compete, and Russia was deprived of certain tournaments.

In addition, the athletes were selected medals Sochi, which is why Russia lost the lead in the medal standings of the Olympics-2014.

Also in the report it is a question of involvement in the doping scandal of the Russian authorities, which constantly covered the scheme.
