IAAF's 5-person panel for Russia reforms

The IAAF has announced the rest of the five-person panel to monitor Russia's efforts to win reinstatement of its track and field federation.

World athletics' governing body provisionally suspended the Russian federation on Friday after the country was accused of operating a state-sponsored doping program in a report by a World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) commission.

The IAAF announced on Friday that Norwegian anti-doping expert Rune Andersen would lead the inspection team.

The other panel members, announced on Tuesday, are IAAF Council members Abby Hoffman of Canada, Italian Anna Riccardi, Namibia's Frank Fredericks and Geoff Gardner of Norfolk Island.

Andersen said "it's on behalf of the innocent athletes who are Russia's athletics future that we begin our task to ensure that fair and honest competition is guaranteed".
