Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon stepped down yesterday following allegations that he rigged voting at the club's last annual general assembly, which approved its financial accounts. But the 57-year-old lawyer, whose four-year mandate was set to expire in 2010, said he was leaving with his conscience clear. "I am leaving with my hands clean and my conscience clear," said an emotional Calderon. He added that he hoped his resignation would "pacify" the tense atmosphere which has engulfed the high profile club. Vice president Vicente Boluda Fos will take over as caretaker president until fresh elections are held in June.
