The International Testing Agency has confirmed that the Russian figure skater, Kamila Valieva, failed a drugs test in December.

The 15-year-old helped win team figure skating gold for the Russian Olympic Committee on Monday but the medals were not awarded because of a "legal issue".

The Russian Anti Doping Agency (Rusada) lifted her suspension, enabling her to continue at the Beijing Games.

The International Olympic Committee has now appealed against the decision to lift her suspension.
