    "There is a decision to be taken by the Swedish Board confederations doping commission, so they take the decision and so then of course it's up to her what she will do in the future with her life in relation to Sweden. What we can realise it that it's been many years since she has lived in Ethiopia."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Sverker Nilsson, Chairman of the Swedish Athletics medical committee

    "We are testing our 40 best athletes. They are tested very very often, these are normal tests, nothing special."
