Veerpalu

He is scheduled to appear before court in Innsbruck on October 8. According to William, it is not yet clear when Andrus Veerpalu has to do the same.

In addition, Kazakh skier Alexei Poltoranin, coached by Estonians Mati Alaver and Andrus Veerpalu, was nabbed by the police.

Veerpalu, 49, has not given any comments during the one-and-a-half years that has passed since the disclosure.

Andrus Veerpalu takes on a role as advisor to Kazakh skier Alexey Poltoranin, one of five skiers detained on Wednesday in Austria.

As well as Veerpalu, 24, and Tammjärv, 29, two Austrian skiers, Max Hauke, and Dominik Baldauf, and Kzakh skier Alexey Poltoranin, were detained, though released ahead of the Estonian skiers.

Reports surface that a recent World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) doping test on Veerpalu may have proved positive.

Tammjärv then explained that Andreas Veerpalu had joined the doping program later on, and that they didn't talk about it a lot.

The response to the scandal in Estonia was immense, with tens of thousands of people expressing their support and belief in the innocence of Andrus Veerpalu.

They also plan to talk to the athletes under investigation, Karel Tammjärv and Andreas Veerpalu, and the former head coach of the Estonian ski team, Anti Saarepuu, among others.
