The Directorate of Economic Police, with the assistance of inspectors from the National Pharmaceutical Organization (EOF), arrested yesterday, Tuesday, November 1, 2022, in an area of Attica, a doctor accused of administering doping preparations and other unapproved treatments to athletes, as well as fraud at the expense of EOPYY.
As established by the investigation, at least since March 2020, taking advantage of her status, she administered the treatments in question mainly to athletes, either at the client's place or at her home.
In fact, in order to advertise the products it offered, it had created a relevant website, while at the same time, in order to legitimize its activity, it had set up a company with non-existent facilities, as it was found.
The administration of the treatments was intended to repair injuries, enhance athletic performance and the immune system, combat exhaustion, lose weight, increase libido, and fight aging.
The ingredients of the treatments came from three (3) categories of preparations, namely:
non-genuine pharmaceutical preparations (doping) with a fake EOF authenticity tape,
pharmaceutical preparations with prohibited substances from abroad without a license from the EOF and
pharmaceutical preparations, which he had obtained through fake prescriptions, causing financial damage to the EOPPY.
During the search carried out at her house, a number of the aforementioned preparations were found and confiscated, which were sent to the EOF for laboratory examination, while her mobile phone was also confiscated, which will be sent to the forensic laboratories for examination.
The arrested person with the case filed against her was taken to the competent prosecuting authority and referred to an Investigator.
It is reminded that citizens can contact, anonymously or by name, the telephone number 11012 or the e-mail address financialpolice@hellenicpolice.gr of the Financial Police Directorate, in order to provide information or report illegal and fraudulent actions or activities against the sector of the economy, public property, as well as social and insurance welfare and rights.
