Man caught with steroids strapped to his bodyAfter a flight from Bangkok, a man was detected to have carried steroids by strapping it to his legs. Custom officials ran a frisk search on the 35-year old man and found a total of 655 vials and 575 tablets strapped to his legs. There were additional vials, tablets seized totaling to almost 1,200, Customs, and Border Protection said in a statement.

Based on a questioning conducted by Melbourne Airport authority, the steroids were obtained in Thailand. Thailand, together with Mexico, is one of the few countries where these substances are available over the counter with or without a valid prescription.

During baggage examination, a device resembling a mobile phone was also confiscated. It was discovered to be an electric shock device.

In Australia, anabolic steroids must be obtained with a valid prescription, usually from a general practitioner. Without a prescription, a criminal offense is committed. Fines for importing performance enhancing drugs can reach $110,000 Australian dollars. Maximum imprisonment could last as long as five years. Whether steroids were obtained from other countries, bought online or from dealers, possession without a valid prescription is illegal.

Ignorance of the law excuses no one, not even Sly who was caught before with 48 vials of HGH as he visited the country.

From the Heraldsun:

A MAN allegedly detected with more than 1200 vials and tablets of steroids strapped to his legs has been intercepted by customs officials.
