According to the newspaper “The Sydney Morning Herald”, illegal application of steroids has become widespread in Australia due to outlaw motorcycle gangs. The gangs get high profit and low risks.
The detective Nick Bingham has affirmed that New South Wales Police doesn’t focus on investigation connected with application of steroids but anabolic steroids become targets of investigations, when police officers arrest motorcycle gangs for violation of other laws.
According to Nick Bingham, however New South Wales police officers don’t raid houses of gangs for steroids, they find them, when they conduct searches for weapons and psychostimulant drugs.
Bingham has confirmed that they usually seize such quantities of steroids from motorcycle gangs that are only for self-administration. Quantities of other medicines which are commonly found in possession of gangs are much greater than those of steroids.
Nick Bingham has claimed that criminals like administering anabolic steroids in order to create threatening muscular physiques. They desire to look big and strong.
However Nick Bingham assures that gangs have steroids only for personal use, the newspaper “The Sydney Morning Herald” doesn’t agree with this statement. It reports that motorcycle gangs are involved in smuggling of steroids.
However gyms are claimed to be the main sources of steroids for bodybuilders, it is confirmed by “The Sydney Morning Herald” that certain gyms have direct connections 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 reports of Australian Customs, mail seizures of steroids have been increased greatly 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.
Lots of seizures were related to self-application of steroids smuggled by bodybuilders.
