Berardelli is accused of administering EPO, a prohibited substance, to Rita Jeptoo, in 2014. He was charged with two Kenyans, who were also freed on bail.

Her case is being dealt with at the Court of Arbitration for Sport. The runner, who won back-to-back Boston and Chicago titles in 2013 and 2014 plus the Boston event in 2006, has denied doping.
