Seema Bisla, 2021 Asian Championships medallist, handed one-year ban for 'whereabout failures'

Tokyo Olympian and 2021 Asian Championships bronze medallist wrestler Seema Bisla has been handed one-year ban by the Anti-Doping Disciplinary Panel (ADDP) of the NADA for "whereabouts failure".

The ADDP passed the order of banning the 30-year-old Seema on July 21.

Her ban period began on May 12 this year, according to the latest list of athletes sanctioned by the ADDP, put up by the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) in its website.

Seema had won a bronze in women's freestyle 50kg class in the 2021 Asian Championships in Almaty, Kazakhstan. She lost in the 50kg round of 16 bout in the Tokyo Olympics in 2021.

There are two types of whereabouts failures -- filing failures and missed tests. It is, however, not known about the nature of Seema's whereabouts failures -- whether filing failures or missed tests or combination of both.
