Following his participation in the men's 400-meter race at the 27th Southeast Asian Games in Myanmar in December, where he placed last in his heats with a time of 49.94s, Ak Hafiy was randomly tested by the Southeast Asian Federation (SEAGF) Medical Committee. Prince Sufri Bolkiah, the President of the BDNOC, emphasized in a statement that athletes should abstain from doping.[5] He was banned for 2 years, with the sanction ending on 24 December 2015.[6][7]
