Amsterdam, April 11 (IANS)
A calm looking former World No. 1 badminton star Lee Chong Wei arrived early for his doping violation hearing that began here on Saturday at Sheraton Hotel amidst tight security.
Dressed in a blue suit, a calm looking Chong Wei arrived accompanied by Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) general manager Kenny Goh for the hearing in front of a three-member independent panel from Badminton World Federation (BWF), reports Xinhua.
The waiting media at the hotel to follow the hearing was ordered out of the premises by security personnel upon strict orders from BWF.
Chong Wei smiled and waved before he was whisked into the hearing room.
Last month, two-time Olympic silver medallist Lee said he hoped the hearing would clear his name and allow him to compete in the 2016 Rio Olympic Games.
Lee, 32, tested positive for the banned anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone at last year's World Championships in Copenhagen, where he lost to China's Chen Long in the final.
