heywoodu 13,500 Posted July 24, 2019 #323 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Update on Ghafoor: some more news is now known, not all official but pretty much clear. 1. She was caught when driving to Germany. She was stopped, officiers didn't trust her 'I'm going to train in Düsseldorf' and asked for her luggage. 2. In the back of the car were bags and boxes, according to her filled with shoes. In reality, it was packages wrapped in aluminum foil, filled with drugs. 3. They found 25 packages, a total of 50kg, mixed between crystal meth and xtc. 4. Dutch athletics federation said Ghafoor won't be able to compete for now 'due to personal issues'. https://www.ad.nl/binnenland/nederlandse-atlete-gepakt-met-50-kilo-drugs~a99ea15b/ If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Jinzha 513 Posted July 24, 2019 #324 Share Posted July 24, 2019 What a weird situation, why would a professional athlete smuggle drugs like that. I know little about where and with whom she trains, but this must be crazy news for her coach and training partners. And the 4x400M relay team too.

Werloc 3,125 Posted July 24, 2019 #325 Share Posted July 24, 2019 (edited) This Friday-Saturday, the Lithuanian Championships are going to start with every big name on the startlist, except Airinė Palšytė that's out with an injury for the time being. I won't be able to catch a minute of it, so I'll update on Sunday if anything noteworthy happens. Edited July 24, 2019 by Werloc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
