The International Association of Athletics Federations has handed out six-month bans to South Korea's Lim Hee-Nam and Portugal's Sara Moreira for doping.

South Korean sprinter Lim Hee-Nam and Portugal's European 5000m bronze medallist Sara Moreira received six-month bans from the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) on Tuesday for doping.

Both athletes tested positive for the stimulant methylhexanamine at last year's world championships in Daegu, South Korea.

Lim's suspension runs until April 10, while Moreira's will expire on March 7.
