He was sanctioned first by the Bulgarian Olympic Committee in October but appealed to CAS. The decision came down in late June that he would have to face punishment. Those reports indicate that he missed doping tests due address changes, which violates the World Anti-Doping Agency\u2019s code. FINA has not yet announced the sanctioning.<\/p>\n<p>The decision was made public in late June, while Ivanov was taking part in a state-level championship in Bulgaria.
