Spanish athletes demand ‘honesty and transparency’ from doping agency

78 top-level Spanish athletes, including world walking champions Alvaro Martín and Maria Perez, expressed their “firm and absolute rejection of the latest actions” of the Spanish Anti-Doping Agency (CELAD), whose head was sacked last month following accusations of irregularities. “Recent events have only served to push back the boundaries and provoke feelings of mistrust, uncertainty and indignation towards our leaders in the fight against doping,” they wrote.
