He didn't say where he was during his AWOL.
Who has? No one. Everyone else just recieved mandatory punishment. His career is over.
Why is he being treated differently?
Why is this even a rule?
Get my drift?
If you intend to reply, please don't repeat with "how he broke the rules by not telling the truth", you've said it 4 times in a row now.

He was probably given more than the madatory punishment, because he had was on a team who didn't want to be associated with someone who would lie to them about his whereabouts, and cast an image of impropriety on himself and his team.
He received the official mandatory punishment from the sporting body, and his team/sponsor decided that they didn't want to support him anymore, so they pulled him.
He wasn't punished more than the other riders by any official body, he pissed off his sponsor and was fired, something that they were probalby were right to do for two reasons:
1) Who would want to sponsor and pay someone who intentionally lies to them?
2) There is major potential for embarassment if thier rider is found out to have been doing something wrong in the timeframe that he lied to you them about.
