Customs bust group trafficking hormonal substances

Customs officials in Czechia, Slovakia, and Poland uncovered a group trafficking banned hormonal substances, seizing several tons of illegal products. Two suspects were detained in Czechia, with seven arrests in Poland and four in Slovakia. Profits exceeded CZK 5 million in Czechia, while Slovak e-shops shipped products globally, valued at over CZK 200 million. The group imported substances like SARMs from Poland and Hong Kong, often mislabeling contents. Authorities seized cash, vehicles, and IT equipment, while uncovering production and storage facilities across all three countries. Investigations are ongoing.
