Cyclist sought over drug lab computer incident

6:07 am on 17 February 2010

A French judge has issued an arrest warrant for American cyclist Floyd Landis, who is suspected on hacking into an anti-doping laboratory computer.

The head of the French anti-doping agency says the judge believes Landis, who was stipped of the 2006 Tour de France after he failed a dope test, wanted to prove the lab where his samples were tested was

wrong.

Landis denies the charges.

The warrant only applies to French territory.
