Rio de Janeiro, Dhu-AlQa'dah 02, 1437, August 05, 2016, SPA -- Kenya removed from the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) list of non-compliant nations late Thursday after the Kenyan parliament adopted appropriate anti-doping legislation, dpa reported. WADA had named Kenya non-compliant with its anti-doping code three months ago because the anti-doping system was not run properly. But it now said "Kenya has drafted and adopted anti-doping legislation now deemed to be in line with the Code." A large number of Kenyan track and field athletes have failed doping tests in recent years, and the Kenyan athletics federation leadership have been suspended by the ruling body IAAF on suspicion of corruption in connection with drug-testing procedures. -- SPA 19:38 LOCAL TIME 16:38 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
