Lamine Diack, former head of IAAF, under investigation in corruption and doping inquiry
Lamine Diack, the former IAAF president, has been placed under
investigation as part of a corruption and aggravated money-laundering
investigation and is suspecting of taking at least €200,000 (£141,000)
from Russia Athletics to cover up positive doping tests, French authorities have said.
The news comes on the day it was revealed that French police also raided the offices of athletics’ governing body in Monaco and took away caches of documents.
The IAAF’s new British president, Sebastian Coe, was at IAAF headquarters at the time of the police raid and “volunteered himself to answer any questions”
