Doping scandal in Turin

Pinter was banned by the International Olympic Committee for life from the Olympic Games for his involvement in a doping scandal at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin. The International Ski Federation cleared him in their anti-doping hearing of the case while three other Austrian cross-country skiers were handed doping bans. The World Anti-Doping Agency appealed Pinters case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, and in November 2008 he was handed a four-year ban from sports.
