New Delhi, Oct. 12 -- Days after India celebrated its biggest medal haul at the World Para Athletics Championships here, the guide of woman sprinter Simran Sharma, Umar Saifi, was provisionally suspended by the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA). Saifi's name figures in the updated NADA list of provisionally suspended athletes. It means Simran, who won the 100m gold and 200m silver in the T12 category, stands to lose her medals. T12 classification involves visually impaired track and field athletes who have a severe vision impairment. They are helped by a guide runner. India logged 22 medals (6 gold, 9 silver, 7 bronze) and the loss of Simran's medals push them from 10th to 14th. Saifi was found guilty of Drostanolone, a performance enhancing synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroid. His test was likely done at the Delhi State Open on September 7 after he won 200m. Saifi started running as Simran's guide earlier this year. "It's an unfortunate development. We have no control over the able-bodied guide runner, but sadly it is Simran who might have to suffer. We will try our best to present our case in a manner that our medals are retained," Satyapal Singh, chief coach of the Indian para athletics team, said. "We aren't sure what will happen if the guide runner tests negative from the tests conducted during the WPAC," another PCI official said. The development came a day before sports minister Mansukh Mandaviya was due to felicitate the para medallists. After the news broke, the event was made a closed-door affair with no media invited. Simran was not part of the felicitation....
