The case connected with Wim Vansevenant, a former Belgian rider, altered dramatically. An analysis displayed that the doping preparations that were ordered by him didn’t contain the contents enumerated on the labels. He was cheated by the company where he ordered the medicines.
Last year some packages sent to the former rider by an Australian company were intercepted by customs officials. It was written on the intercepted bottles that they contained the doping drug TB-500. It is a peptide hormone that can enhance muscle strength and speed healing. The Belgian authorities started an investigation. It was thought that Wim Vansevenant supplied the Omega Pharma-Lotto team with doping medicines. This sportsperson rode professionally 10 years, from 1998 to 2008. Last 6 years of the career he was working with this team.
An analysis of the bottles intercepted by customs showed that they contained only amino acids. Wim Vansevenant’s attorney claimed that the case had to be dropped. He explained that since the preparation was not connected with doping, the former sportsperson didn’t deserve to be punished.
The prosecutor’s spokesperson Johan Lescrauwaet confirmed that the contents didn’t correspond to the name of the product which was indicated on the label and to the words of the former rider.
Only amino acids were discovered in the bottles. No any doping medicine. So, there is no any evidence that Wim Vansevenant provided doping preparations to other persons.
The hearing of former professional athlete was scheduled to be later.
