In July 2017 the National Anti-Doping Commission of Peru (CONAD) reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Athlete Cinthya Melissa Gueerrero Vásquez for her refusal or failure to submit to sample collection. After notification a provisional suspension was ordered and the Athlete filed a statement in her defence.
The Athlete gave a prompt admission and acknowledged that she was unable to provide enough for a sample and was forced to leave the doping control because she was already late for work. She explained that she a single mother working as a model at different events in work shifts. Due to the her problems with the sample collection she was forced to leave the Doping Control and also arrived too late at her work while her boss had already cancelled her work shift.
CONAD considers that the Athlete gave a prompt admission of the anti-doping rule violation and with approval of WADA that the Athlete established grounds for a reduction of the sanction.
Therefore CONAD decides on 13 October 2017 to impose a 3 year and 6 month period of ineligibility on the Athlete starting back dated on 25 July 2017.
