London: British sprinter Nigel Levine has been suspended from all sport for four years after testing positive for banned drug clenbuterol, UK Anti-Doping announced yesterday.
Levine failed a drugs test on November 24 last year and it emerged in February that he had been provisionally suspended.
UKAD said the 29-year-old’s ban will be backdated to December 13, 2017 and run until December 12, 2021.
