The pattern shows many of the major doping cases in the recent past: It needs a Insider who is willing to state machinations, or a private network. It requires a corresponding public Prosecutor’s office or criminal authority starts to investigate, with all that is at investigative resources available.
In this way, German and Austrian police officers smashed now at the Nordic world Championships, the latest doping network. And so, the super-cyclist Lance Armstrong or the goods flew over the printerin Marion Jones. Always there were state investigators, the exposed cheater.
That in this list of the biggest doping scandal in the recent history of Russia is missing, namely, revealed the weak point in the path of the king, a Scam system expose: If an intact rule of law is missing and the competent organs in the Minimum, look the other way, networks crack.
Nevertheless, the Russia-Causa as an example for the Central role of investigative powers: Finally, the research unit of the world Anti-Doping Agency, which began to determine, according to information from whistleblowers to it. While you can summon as their state colleagues no witnesses or wiretap phones. It is dependent on cooperation.
After all, this unit is the global doping fighters is led by a former German police officer. It has been shown in recent years, as the best Instrument of the Private.
Switzerland would Stand now in terms of set up and would consist of a stress test is hardly as sovereign as Austria.
Even better, the Australians are placed in the primary. You are to confess their Anti-Doping authority even certain investigative resources by law. In really substantial cases of the latest but the Sport has no chance. It has the lever missing ? and, often, the intentions, unconditionally clean up. Because the Sport has not solved the basic problem of almost all international organizations, to promote and at the same time monitor. The conflict of interest is unavoidable. Ironically, the now-criticized Austrians – they are involved in Seefeld, once again, in a big case of doping – are among the pioneers in the state’s fight against Doping.
After several cases of Austria, founded about ten years ago, a unit within the Federal Ministry of the Interior, the fraud against betting, Doping and drug abuse is going on. Primary in the sport on the black market, illegal funds are offered for sale in the billion value and are therefore a strong Argument for why a state should establish such specialists. It’s a lot of money.
These officials have the power, which can provide you with the state of research funding available. The Austrians have learned from previous cases. In many other countries, Switzerland is part of it – does not exist such a fundamentally important point.
In Switzerland, would have to be a Prosecutor is of the opinion that it is worth to investigate, on the basis of circumstantial evidence. However, because your forces are, finally, take care of the potentially big cases are to be settled in the economy. To date, Switzerland remained of major doping scandals spared. But the Stand is: Our country would be now in terms of set up and would consist of a stress test is hardly as sovereign as Austria.
So very you should the significance and power of the States in the fight against Doping emphasize: The Sport has been powerful. Especially his informants, he has to protect better. Currently, he considered whistleblowers often as a denigrator. They are valuable servants of a credible Sports more. (Editorial Tamedia)
