Overview
- Marius Lindvik, Johann André Forfang, coaches Magnus Brevik and Thomas Lobben and service staffer Adrian Livelten face formal ethics and competition charges from FIS
- The allegations stem from reinforced threads added to ski suits at the World Ski Championships in Trondheim in March
- FIS said its investigation included 38 witness interviews and examination of 88 evidence items and that no further individuals will be charged
- The ethics committee may impose bans, fines or stripped results but has not set a timetable for its decision ahead of the Milan-Cortina Games
- Norwegian Ski Federation insists the jumpers were unaware of suit modifications and disputes charging the athletes despite staff admissions
