Two Brazilian paralympic lifters fail drug test.

"Brazil's Paralympic committee says two weightlifters have failed drug tests and have been temporarily suspended.

The committee says Denilson Raimundo de Souza tested positive for the diuretic hydrochlorothiazide at a local competition on June 20 and Emerson Junior Barbosa tested positive for the human growth hormone oxandrolone at an event on May 16.

They have 10 days to present their initial defense.

Wednesday's announcement comes just a week after five Brazilian athletes preparing for Saturday's world championships in Germany failed drug tests and were dropped from the team."
