NAIROBI: Kenya is investigating newspaper allegations that doctors from the country supplied prohibited performance enhancing drugs to British athletes, a government minister said on Tuesday. Undercover footage taken by the Sunday Times showed two Kenyan doctors and an associate claiming that they had given British athletes EPO, a banned blood-boosting drug. Kenyan Sports Minister Hassan Wario said the government has asked Anti-Doping Agency of Kenya to contact its British counterparts, UK Anti-Doping, to provide them with information and help in any further investigations. “We have started investigations,” Wario said.
