The decision was made after a complaint was filed against the player for alleged rape of a 19-year-old woman.\n\nThe complaint, which has begun to circulate in several media outlets, details the alleged events that occurred during a social gathering in Bogot\u00e1. The young woman claims to have been the victim of sexual assault or sexual act while she was in a state of incapacity to resist.\n\nAccording to the report, the complainant would have lost the ability to react after consuming alcoholic beverages and was subsequently taken to an apartment, where the events allegedly occurred with the participation of more than one person.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Official Club Statement<\/h2>\n\n\nIn its statement, Atl\u00e9tico Nacional expressed its solidarity with the person who filed the complaint and rejected any conduct that undermines human dignity and integrity. The club has activated its internal protocols, ensuring that they will be carried out with responsibility and transparency.\n\nWhile investigations are ongoing, the player will not be called up for the team&#8217;s upcoming commitments. The club has stated that it will respect due process, the presumption of innocence, and impartiality in handling the case.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Research Context<\/h2>\n\n\nThe case arises amidst a context of multiple reports of alleged gender-based violence in Colombia. The Attorney General&#8217;s Office has announced the opening of an investigative initiative and has enabled special channels for receiving complaints, with the aim of coordinating investigations with a gender perspective.\n\nThis event has reignited the debate on the importance of strengthening mechanisms for the prevention, investigation, and sanctioning of gender-based violence, especially in the field of professional sports.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atl\u00e9tico Nacional Removes Nicol\u00e1s Rodr\u00edguez Calder\u00f3n Following Allegation of Rape Bogot\u00e1, Colombia \u2013 Atl\u00e9tico Nacional has issued an official statement this Monday, announcing the separation of Nicol\u00e1s Rodr\u00edguez Calder\u00f3n from all activities of the professional team.
