Peru Star Allowed To Play In World Cup Despite Drug Ban

(CNN)His case has gripped and outraged a nation, but it looks like Paolo Guerrero will play for Peru at the 2018 World Cup after all. Banned for 14 months by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) for an alleged drugs violation only last week, Peru's all-time top scorer has now been cleared to travel to Russia with his teammates. In a remarkable turnaround, Guerrero was granted a stay of execution Wednesday by the Federal Supreme Court of Switzerland.
