MEXICO CITY : Mexico's artistic swim team, which had to sell swimming suits and towels to pay for their Olympic preparation, will now get their scholarships reinstated after winning a lawsuit against the National Commission of Physical Culture and Sport .
"The resolution that was given is the definitive suspension that is granted to the athletes and that gives CONADE three days to inform the judge that they are already reinstating the payment of the scholarships," the swimmers' lawyer, Luis Jimenez, told newspaper Milenio. Ana Guevara, head of CONADE, announced the cut in funding in January after the world governing body, World Aquatics, disowned the president of the Mexican Swimming Federation, Kiril Todorov, who is facing trial for embezzlement.
