Fails dope test

BUSAN OCT. 13. India found itself in danger of being stripped of a gold and a bronze medal today after distance runner Sunita Rani tested postive for the banned substance, nandrolone.

However, other athletes continued India's golden run in the Asian Games, winning four medals, including a gold by the women's relay team in the 4x400 m.

High jumper Bobby Aloysius and the men's 4x400 m relay team won silver while discus thrower Anil Kumar chipped in with a bronze.
