The Jamaica Anti-Doping Disciplinary (JADCO) has convened an Independent Anti-Doping Disciplinary Panel to hold a disciplinary hearing for national bodybuilder Deidre Lewis.

A few weeks ago, revelations came to light that an athlete had returned an adverse analytical finding, but the details of the situation have been kept relatively close to the association.

According to the release, Lewis will face the disciplinary panel via a virtual hearing, on Thursday.  The release also stated that the hearing, as is the protocol of JADCO, will be held in-camera.

Lewis, who competes in the Bikini Fitness Short Class category, won the national title last year, before competing in Aruba last August where she was second in the short class, finishing behind Febe Moreno of Mexico.  Lewis was third overall in the Bikini Fitness category.
