The family of Aman Malik, a 17-year-old Indian long-distance runner, is protesting his three-year prison sentence in Kenya after he was found guilty in a doping scandal. Malik, who moved to Iten in 2023 to train, was implicated in a "sophisticated network" trafficking illegal drugs to athletes.

• Aman Malik received a three-year sentence in a Nairobi prison after being found guilty of involvement in a doping drug trafficking network.
• The court identified a former middle-distance runner and social media influencer, Malik's coach, as the sender of banned substances from India.
• The Indian Ministry of External Affairs has secured consular access for Malik, who regrets following misguided advice from 'senior athletes.'
