Outlaw motorcycle gangs are responsible for spread of illegal usage of steroids in Australia

The newspaper “The Sydney Morning Herald” reports that illicit administration of steroids has become widespread in Australia due to outlaw motorcycle gangs. The gangs get essential profit and reduced risks.
Nick Bingham, a detective, has affirmed that New South Wales Police doesn’t focus on investigation connected with steroid use but anabolic steroids become targets of investigations, when outlaw motorcycle gangs are arrested for violation of other laws.
According to the detective Nick Bingham, however New South Wales police officers don’t raid houses of gangs for steroids, they find them, when searches for weapons and psychoactive drugs are conducted.
The detective Nick Bingham has confirmed that they ordinarily seize such amounts of steroids from motorcycle gangs that are just for personal intake. Amounts of other substances which are commonly found in possession of gangs are much greater than those of steroids.
The detective Nick Bingham has confirmed that criminals like taking anabolic steroids in order to have threatening muscular bodies. They want to look big and powerful.
Although Nick Bingham assures that gangs have steroids just for personal application, the newspaper “The Sydney Morning Herald” presents opposite opinion. It reports that motorcycle gangs are involved in smuggling of steroids.
Although gyms are claimed to be the most important sources of steroids for bodybuilders, it is confirmed by “The Sydney Morning Herald” that some 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 reports 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.
Numerous seizures were connected with personal application of steroids smuggled by bodybuilders.
