11:07 am
a band substance at a pre olympic event. the decision allows valley ever to compete in the women's event which takes place on tuesday. and she's a favorite when that katrina, you now joins us live from beijing. take us through the reasons for the court's decision. katrina for the quarter, the arbitration for sport or cas decided the value eva will be able to continue competing and will appear as scheduled into moore's individual figure skating event due to several exceptional circumstances. now this is despite value of a testing positive for tree metacity. 6 weeks ago, metacity is a band substance which treats and jain but also boosts endurance, not to those exceptional circumstances. the 1st was value of his age. she's only 15 years old. and according to the world anti doping cord minus have certain protections. the 2nd is the legality around this. now she did not test positive
11:08 am
during the baby winter olympics itself, but had during a previous pre olympic event. and this legal process around that, that particular test is still ongoing. and so cast decided that preventing her from competing going forward would cause her irreparable damage. thirdly, they said it was the timing of all of this. this positive test did not come to light until february, the 8th, until one day after the valley a. the lead her team to gold medal victory on the previous monday. so they said that this timing was simply not her fault. now, i would very likely, very relieved by this, but not everyone is happy already. b u. s. and then the committee has expressed disappointment, although the i see says they're going to abide by this ruling and who solder the u . s. anti doping agency has reminded people that we still need to show compassion for value. but because she's still just a child. the swirling still leaves money on, on some questions, doesn't it?
