MONACO (MON): Long distance star Paula Radcliffe has criticised the WADA for not following up on initial allegations of systematic doping in China and claimed the statute of limitations should be scrapped completely to prevent countries cheating. Britain’s world marathon record holder was speaking in response to claims made by Xue Yinxian, a 79-year-old former doctor with the Chinese team, who told German broadcaster ARD that over 10,000 athletes across all sports in the nation were involved in a compulsory doping programme in the 1980s and 1990s.
