Uzbekistan's Ivan Efremov to be awarded Olympic bronze after eight years

In a consultative meeting by videoconference, the IOC Executive Board (EB), took the decision to reallocate medals, diplomas and medallist pins from the Olympic Games London 2012 based on decisions made by the IOC Disciplinary Commission.

Following the disqualification of athletes in the sports of cycling and weightlifting, the results have been adjusted accordingly by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) and the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) respectively.

In the men’s 105kg weightlifting event, the first- and fourth-placed athletes have been disqualified, so the gold medal is reallocated to Navab Nasirshelal of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the silver to Bartlomiej Wojciech Bonk of Poland and the bronze to Ivan Efremov of Uzbekistan, and the subsequent ranking until eighth place has been adapted.
