‘Symbol of Russian national character’ Averina was victim of ‘political games’ in Olympic medal row, claims State Duma sports boss
source : Russia Today ( News ) () 8
A Russian politician on the country's sports committee has said gymnast Dina Averina was a victim of "political games" when she was controversially denied a gold medal at the Olympic Games. Senior lawmaker Boris Paikin has lavished praise on Averina after the star was reduced to tears by a contentious judging decision, missing out on the 40th title of her senior career despite Israeli rival Linoy Ashram dropping the ribbon during her routine. Paikin drew parallels with the scandal involving former Olympic champion Alexei Nemov, who was awarded a bafflingly low score for a spectacular high bar routine at the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens
