In any event, I feel that if Aouita is guilty either of having encouraged doping in Australian athletes or of doping himself, or both, he should be stripped of all results and honors from his own racing days.
You know that Aouita is weak mentally (I mean don't expect someone with Einstein QI).
He didn't do anything of dopage to the Australian runners but there were some bad tongues that reported him advising a new runner to take drugs to at least reach some descent level before.
He could said that as friend pleasantry (not in serious).
But the people wanted him out.
I have also a blame against El Guerrouj (I always avoided to talk badly about him), but the thing is that he is a selfish (help nobody).
He didn't do anything to rise a new generation of runners and maybe he don't the mental for that.
Aouita in the contrary was great in that. Aouita is behind the creation of the first Professional Athletic Institute in Morocco with the advise of King Hassan II.
It's that institute that generated the known Olympian Skah, Boutayeb, Moughit (I remember this one was one of the first discoveries of Aouita) and even El Guerrouj spent his first years in that institute.

Obviously this is your biased British point of view (I hope I'm not wrong about your country).
How about looking to the other empty side of the cup:
- A young runner that rise in a complete poverty environment (his father was a guardian separated from his mother).
- A young runner that worked hard to prove himself in a hostile and unfavorable milieu.
The accusations of Aouita go much further than is being alluded. This was not a one off thing with a comment made in passing as a joke to a friend. It was literally something he talked about everyday in training camp. He especially emphasized the benefits of HGH. Michael Power is a forthright and honest person, and very courageous in revealing what was transpiring.
Certainly, you can’t mean “Mourhit”, (moughit?) right?

I know that Aouita left Australia for Aspire (Academy For Sport Excellence) in qatar. Is he still there? I know that Aden is there in qatar coaching/advising. Perhaps they collaborate?

Yeah, but this doesn't apply to Aouita. He spent 2 or 3 years at the elite National French Institute of Sport in Marseille from the age of 19 and actually went backwards.

There is no national French Institute of sport in Marseille, but there is INSEP in Paris.
