The DPP has withdrawn doping charges against Italian sports agent Federico Rosa in order to carry out further investigations. Senior State counsel Mary Wang'ele notified a Kibera court of the decision to withdraw the charges on Tuesday. "The state wishes to conduct further investigations on the claims of doping," she told principal magistrate Benard Ochoi. He faced multiple counts related to doping and ruining the reputations of two Kenyan athletes, one being Rita Jeptoo, who was banned on doping violations.
