Another high profile Kenyan runner, said to have dominated world championships over the years, is embroiled in a doping scandal, Standard Sports has learnt.

Although the news has yet to be made public by either Anti-Doping Agency of Kenya (Adak) or Athletics Kenya (AK), impeccable sources have suggested the star has tested positive for performance-enhancing drug erythropoietin (EPO) during out-of-competition testing.
