The case related to Wim Vansevenant, a former Belgian rider, changed significantly. An analysis manifested that the doping drugs that were ordered by him didn’t contain the contents listed on the labels. The former rider was cheated by the company where he ordered the medications.
Last year several packages sent to Wim Vansevenant by an Australian company were intercepted by customs officials. It was written on the intercepted bottles that they contained the doping medication TB-500. It is a peptide hormone which has ability to enhance muscle power and speed healing. The Belgian authorities started an investigation. It was suspected that Wim Vansevenant supplied the Omega Pharma-Lotto team with doping products. This sportsperson rode professionally 10 years, from 1998 to 2008. Last 6 years of the career he was with this team.
An analysis of the bottles seized by customs illustrated that just amino acids were presented. Wim Vansevenant’s attorney argued that the accusations had to be dropped. He explained that since the medication was not connected with doping, the former sportsperson didn’t deserve to be punished.
The prosecutor’s spokesperson Johan Lescrauwaet affirmed that the contents didn’t correspond to the name of the preparation that was indicated on the label and to the affirmations of the former athlete.
Just amino acids were found in the bottles. No any doping medication. So, there is no any evidence that Wim Vansevenant provided doping drugs to other individuals.
The hearing of the former Belgian professional rider was scheduled to be later.
