The International Orienteering Federation (IOF) confirmed that those competitors who were denied podium finishes by the Russian at this year's World Ski Orienteering Championships (WSOC) in Krasnoyarsk and the European Ski Orienteering Championships (ESOC) in Imatra will receive their medals at the ceremony.

It is due to be held on November 28 during the World Cup event in the municipality of Kolari in Lapland Province.

"Following the conviction of a ski orienteering athlete for doping earlier this year, there are several medals which now need to be awarded to the correct winner," the IOF said.

The medals which need to be re-awarded include the women's relay at the WSOC in March, where Frolova skied the second leg, as Russia beat Finland by more than two minutes to win the gold medal.

Finland have now been promoted to the gold medal, Czech Republic to silver and and Estonia to bronze.

That gold was one of five medals won by Frolova in the Russian resort.

She has been stripped of them all following a positive test for the heart disease drug meldonium detected in a urine sample she gave on February 8 at the ESOC in Finland following the mixed sprint relay.

Frolova had combined with Andrey Lamov to beat Sweden 3 in a photo finish. 

Swedish pair of Frida Sandberg and Ulrik Nordberg will now inherit the gold medal.

Russia 2 team Mariya Kechkina and Sergey Gorlanov will be promoted to the silver medal.

The 31-year-old Frolova will also lose the gold medal she won in the women's relay, where she skied the second leg.

The gold medal will go to Finland, silver to Sweden and bronze to Czech Republic. 

Frolova has also lost her silver medals from the WSOC in the mixed sprint relay, women's sprint and women's middle-distance and bronze in the women's long-distance.

Three other results of Frolova at the ESOC were disqualified, comprising her fourth-place finish in the sprint event, fifth-place finish in the long-distance event and sixth-place finish in the middle-distance event.

The announcement from the IOF follows similar measures taken by the International Association of Athletics Federations, who held special ceremonies to award reallocated medals at the World Championships in London earlier this year.
