The repport showed there were also 93,000 drug-related arrests and a total of 809 hidden drug laboratories discovered during this period. Home Affairs Minister Jason Clare said the key to stopping drug activities is police teamwork and criminal intelligence. "85 percent of the drugs we seize are because of criminal intelligence that our law enforcement agencies collect before the drugs ever arrive in Australia," he said. The ACC also announced record seizures of hormones in performance and image-enhancing drugs. Executive director of ACC Paul Jevtovic said drugs in sports are on the rise, hence the commission's focus on drugs in sport. "In relation to hormones, it's the highest reported detections that we've had in the last decade," he said.

An alarming increase in the use, seizure and arrests for illicit drugs is the central finding of the Australian Crime Commission's annual report, released on Monday, with significant implications for sport, especially the professional football codes. ACC chief executive John Lawler warns "the illicit drug market remains the principal source of profit for organised crime". He said criminals infiltrate sporting clubs and gain information or compromise players in exchange for illicit drugs, such as amphetamines and cocaine, and use it to spot-bet, or fix matches, capitalising on the myriad gambling outlets now available. Victoria Police Deputy Commissioner Graham Ashton issued a similar warning following the AFL's announcement on Thursday of a more than fourfold increase in the number of positive tests by AFL players for illicit substances. Advertisement Ashton said illicit drugs, rather than the performance and image-enhancing drugs that had caught players from Cronulla and Essendon, had a greater potential to compromise the integrity of players and matches. While PIEDs are banned only for elite sportspeople, illicit drugs involve athletes in criminal activity. The NRL admits it is sufficiently concerned about the risk of illicit drugs to consider implementing a centralised program of target and random testing. The ACC's … Continue reading →
