Employees of the Main Investigative Department (GSU) of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in the Chelyabinsk region have completed the investigation of a criminal case against a criminal group involved in the smuggling of anabolic steroids. This was announced on April 30 by the press service of the department in the Telegram channel.

"One of the group's members, a previously convicted man born in 1999, who served as an inter-regional custodian in Chelyabinsk, was detained red-handed by officers of the UNK GU of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the region while receiving another batch of illegal substances weighing about 5 kg from accomplices. After his arrest and searches at his residential address, the police seized another 11 kg of steroids," the Interior Ministry said.
