  • Operacion Puerto - Hoping for the whole truth comes to an end

    Yesterday, Dr. Fuentes was sentenced by the Spanish court to one year in prison, which declared he had breached public health laws while carry out blood transfusions to improve performance of top cyclists.
    He was also banned from practising as a sports doctor for four years.
    The shock for the anti-doping authorities came afterwards, when the judge ruled, that the blood bags could not be turned over to them for DNA-tests and so the names finally will never be revealed!
    The judge also decided, that the data from the Fuentes computer will be destroyed!
    Spanish law did not ban doping at the time of the raid on Fuentes' laboratory, meaning he could only be tried on public health charges. He is unlikely to go to prison, as sentences under two years are normally suspended in Spain.

    In my opinion this decision is a disaster for the fairplay in sports. :(
