2 4 - 0 3 - 2 0 0 6 Raid uncovers steroid stockpile The Daily Telegraph dailytelegraph.news.com.au March 24, 2006 A SYDNEY man is being questioned over the importation of performance enhancing drugs, including human growth hormone and thousands of steroid tablets. Australian Customs Service officers raided the 21-year-old's home at Curl Curl, on Sydney's northern beaches, yesterday following the interception of 11 packages of drugs during the past five months. A customs spokesman said investigators had been monitoring the imports since November 2, when small packages containing steroids and growth hormones were intercepted at Sydney's Clyde International Mail Centre. In the following months the amounts being imported steadily increased, culminating on March 17 with the importation of between 10,000 and 15,000 pink anabolic steroid tablets , and 50 injectable vials filled with human growth hormone. The drugs had been imported from China , the US and Europe, the spokesman said. Investigations were continuing and charges were expected to be laid soon. There was nothing to suggest the drug hauls were connected with the Melbourne Commonwealth Games, the spokesman said. [Link]
