Dutch Anicka van Emden (U63 kg) will not participate in the European Games in Baku due to a running investigation of the Dutch anti-doping authorities. The world’s number five is not able to participate awaiting this investigation.

“I cannot make any further announcement about this during the investigation, but I have suspended my sporting activities temporarily. Once I have full clarification, which could take several weeks, I will make this known.”

Van Emden is not suspected of using prohibited substances. Van Emden recently couldn’t participate in the IJF Masters due to illness and she won gold in Samsun last March and bronze in Baku in May.
