(Reuters) - Latvian biathlete Andrejs Rastorgujevs has been suspended for 18 months after he registered three whereabouts failures in a 12-month period which constitutes an anti-doping rule violation, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) said on Friday.

Rastorgujevs, 33, registered his first whereabouts failure in October 2019 and a second in June 2020. The CAS Anti-Doping Division was deliberating on the third violation in September 2020.
