London-2012: Luiza Galiulina official expelled from Games

Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- The IOC says a gymnast from Uzbekistan Luiza Galiulina has been formally expelled from the London Olympics after her backup "B" sample also came back positive for doping.

Luiza Galiulina has been kicked out of the athletes village after the test confirmed the initial finding for use of the banned diuretic furosemide.

Galiulina tested positive in a pre-games urine control in London last Wednesday. She had been provisionally suspended by the IOC pending analysis of the "B" sample.
