IOC Says Doping Whistleblower Who Fears For Her Life Not Its Problem; Reuters via Huffington Post, 8/21/16

Reuters via Huffington Post; IOC Says Doping Whistleblower Who Fears For Her Life Not Its Problem:
"IOC president Thomas Bach, responding to a question about a perceived lack of support from the IOC for Stepanova, said: “I have to reject this. We are not responsible for dangers to which Ms. Stepanova may be exposed.”
Stepanova said this week that the accessing of her account was done to discover her whereabouts. She has been branded a traitor by many people back home in Russia.
“If something happens to us then you should know that it is not an accident,” Stepanova said in a conference call days ago."
