LONDON - Uzbek gymnast Luiza Galiulina was on Sunday provisionally banned from the 2012 Olympics for a positive drugs test, the International Olympic Committee said on Sunday.
Galiulina provided a urine sample on July 25th that tested
positive for the prohibited substance furosemide – a diuretic
that can be used as a masking agent or for weight loss.
The Uzbek is the second athlete in two days to have failed a
drug test.
