Comedian Neko loses Olympic bid

Comedian Hiroshi Neko, Cambodia's pick to represent it in the Olympic marathon in London, has been rejected by the world ruling body for track and field, which says he is not yet eligible to represent the Southeast Asian nation. The rejection by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) was conveyed in a letter to Khmer Amateur Athletes Federation Secretary General Pen Vuthy. It says Neko "will be eligible to represent Cambodia in international competitions under IAAF rules starting from Oct. 18, 2012," suggesting he is ineligible before that date. (Kyodo News)
