(Reuters) -British canoeist Kurts Adams Rozentals has been handed a two-year suspension and kicked out of the Olympic programme after posting an explicit video on Instagram and misleading the press about the reasons for his initial ban, Paddle UK announced.

The canoe slalom athlete, who was part of Paddle UK's World Class Programme for Olympic hopefuls, was initially suspended in April by the governing body and has now been de-selected from the elite programme entirely.
