Brahim Boulami

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brahim Boulami (Arabic: ابراهيم بولامي‎) (born April 20, 1972 in Safi) is a Moroccan athlete who had set two world records in the 3,000 meter steeplechase, 7:55.28 and 7:53.17. The latter was overturned because he tested positive for the banned performance enhancing drug EPO. Boulami was banned for two years in 2002 after the positive test.

His older brother Khalid Boulami is an Olympic bronze medalist.
