World Anti-Doping Agency asks the Court of Arbitration for Sport for a public hearing on its case for Russia's exclusion from international sporting competitions
Russia was banned by the International Olympic Committee from this year's Pyeongchang Winter Games as punishment for alleged state-sponsored doping across many sports, including biathlon.
WADA director general Olivier Niggli said his group made the formal request for a public forum to resolve the dispute would ensure the world hears the case from both sides and understands how punishment, if any, is administered. WADA sent its case against the Russian Anti-Doping Agency to CAS, the world's highest sports court, last month.
WADA says Russia "manipulated" data from an anti-doping laboratory in Moscow in the latest move in a long-running scandal that began with the 2015 revelation of long-term institutional doping involving senior Russian officials, secret agents, and trafficked urine vials.
