The case connected with Wim Vansevenant, a former Belgian rider, changed surprisingly. An analysis displayed that the doping medications that were ordered by him didn’t contain the contents written on the labels. The former Belgian rider was cheated by the company where he ordered the medicines.
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 medicine TB-500. It is a peptide hormone that has ability to induce increasing stamina and speed healing. An investigation was started by the Belgian authorities. It was suspected that Wim Vansevenant supplied the Omega Pharma-Lotto team with doping medicines. This person rode professionally 10 years, from 1998 to 2008. Last 6 years of his career he was working with this team.
An analysis of the bottles intercepted by customs manifested that they contained only amino acids. Wim Vansevenant’s lawyer noted that the case had to be dropped. He explained that since the medication was not related to doping, the former sportsperson didn’t deserve to be punished.
The prosecutor’s spokesperson Johan Lescrauwaet claimed that the contents didn’t correspond to the name of the preparation which was indicated on the label and to the affirmations of the former athlete.
Just amino acids were found in the bottles. No any doping preparation. Thus, there is no any evidence that Wim Vansevenant provided doping medications to other individuals.
The hearing of the former Belgian professional rider was scheduled to be later.
