The WSF Anti Doping Program Administrator has advised:
"Dutch squash player Karen Kronemeyer has been banned for two years by the
Netherlands Squash Board Disciplinary Committee, as traces of the banned substance benzylpiperazine were found in a urine sample taken during February's Dutch National Championships. The ban takes effect from 12 February 2006.

In accordance with Article 14 of the World Squash Anti-Doping Code, the World Squash Federation recognises and respects the ban by Netherlands Squash Bond as do the Women's International Squash Players Association. Therefore the WSF and WISPA also ban Ms. Kronemeyer from participating in any event or activity authorized or organized by WSF, or WISPA, or a Regional or National Squash Association under the jurisdiction of WSF, for a period of two years also with effect from 12 February 2006."
