The Russian anti-doping Agency (RUSADA) has handed two-time European track cycling champion Yelena Brezhniva a four-year ban for doping offences.
The organisation announced the ban on its website on Thursday.
According to the R-Sport news agency, a sample taken from Brezhniva found traces of growth hormones.
The 26-year-old's suspension started on June 22, 2015.
Brezhniva first represented Russia in 2008. In 2013 and 2014 she won the European team sprint title.
