According to the newspaper “The Sydney Morning Herald”, outlaw motorcycle gangs should be blamed for spread of illegal administration of steroids in Australia. The gangs have essential profit and low risks.
Nick Bingham, a detective, has noticed that New South Wales Police doesn’t focus on investigation linked with intake of steroids but anabolic steroids become targets of investigations, when outlaw motorcycle gangs are arrested for violation of other laws.
According to Nick Bingham, however New South Wales police officials don’t raid houses of gangs for steroids, they find them, when searches for weapons and psychostimulant drugs are conducted.
Nick Bingham has reported that they usually seize such amounts of steroids from motorcycle gangs that are just for personal intake. Quantities of other medicines which are usually found in possession of gangs are much greater than those of steroids.
Bingham has noticed that criminals prefer utilizing anabolic steroids in order to create threatening muscular bodies. They want to look big and strong.
Although Nick Bingham assures that gangs possess steroids only for personal usage, the newspaper “The Sydney Morning Herald” doesn’t agree with this statement. It is reported that motorcycle gangs are implicated in smuggling of steroids.
Although gyms are claimed to be the chief sources of steroids for bodybuilders, it is confirmed by “The Sydney Morning Herald” that several gyms have direct links with motorcycle gangs. The Herald claims that many seizures made by the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service are related closely to distribution of steroids by motorcycle gangs.
According to statements of Australian Customs, mail seizures of steroids have been enhanced essentially in comparison with past years.
Over 2, 000 seizures were made in 2009-2010 and over 5, 000 seizures of steroids were recorded in 2010-2011.
The majority of seizures were connected with self-administration of steroids imported by bodybuilders.
