In July 2015 the National Doping Control Commission of Chile (CNCD) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the karate Athlete Cristopher Guajardo Mondaca after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance Human Recombinant Erythropoietin (rhEPO).
After notification a provisional suspension was ordered and the Athlete filed a statement in his defence. Further the Athlete provided substantial assisstance to the CNCD regarding anti-doping rule violations committed by other athletes or other persons.
The Disciplinary Panel of the Tribunal de Expertos en Dopaje (TED) finds that the presence of the prohibited substance has been established in the Athlete's sample and accordingly that he committed an anti-doping rule violation. The Panel considers that the Athlete had provided substantial assistance regarding committed anti-doping rule violations.
Therefore the TED Disciplinary Panel decides on 27 May 2016 to impose a 2 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete, starting on the date of the provisional suspension, i.e. on 22 July 2015.
