This Sunday, August 6, Colombian sports are in mourning.
The athlete and world skating champion was murdered in Cali, on the night of this Saturday, August 5, apparently at the hands of her sentimental partner.
The murder, which continues to raise more than one question mark and which generated great rejection of what happened, occurred in a residential complex in the El Mameyal area, in the vicinity of Cristo Rey hill, in the northwest of Cali.
According to information that the Police and the Prosecutor’s Office are investigating whether the athlete would have been in the company of a man, who would be her sentimental partner.
