Here's the official IOC statement:
The President of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), Jacques Rogge, has tonight set up a Disciplinary Commission pursuant to the Olympic Charter and Article 7 of the IOC Anti-Doping Rules applicable in relation to the ATHENS 2004 Olympic Games, in order to investigate the nature and circumstances of an alleged anti-doping rule violation committed by two Greek athletes (unavailability for testing and failing, without compelling justification, to submit to sample collection for testing after notification).
The Disciplinary Commission will be responsible for hearing the athletes involved and present a report to the IOC Executive Board, the body which has the authority to take a decision on such cases. The IOC will issue another statement as soon as the procedure is over.

Winning by cheating never pays. They always lose, unless they don't get caught.
