GENEVA (Reuters) – A Swiss laboratory named in a World Anti-Doping Agency report that alleged a state-sponsored drugs culture in Russian athletics said on Thursday it had not done anything wrong and had destroyed samples in line with the world body’s rules.

The Swiss doping analysis laboratory, known by its French initials LAD, said in a statement that the Lausanne hospital where it is based would carry out an audit to shed full light on the matter.
