.A Belgian court has ordered the UCI to pay Iljo Keisse 100,000 euros for unjustly prohibiting him from racing. It is only the latest step in a long and complicated legal case for Keisse, now with Omega Pharma-Quick Step.
Keisse tested positive at the Six Days of Gent in November 2008, and the Belgian federation banned him for two years. The federation lifted that ban end of 2009 and he resumed racing. The UCI appealed that decision, and the CAS overturned it, confirming that Keisse was to ride his sit out his entire ban. He was allowed to ride in all areas other than Belgium as of August 2011, but was only allowed to ride in Belgium against as of January 27, 2012.
The Belgian court has now ruled that the UCI unfairly prohibited Kesse from riding from December 2010 and May 2011. He will also be allowed to retain the second place finish in the Rotterdam Six Day race from January 2011.
