Specifically, this is the 57-year-old businessman from Glyfada, who according to the indictment allegedly used his house as a place of trafficking of anabolic steroids.
However, during his plea today he denied the charges and cited the fact that he is a chemist. He claimed that he conducted experiments using the pills himself.
On the other hand, the second accused, 70 years old after his plea was released on the condition of appearing once a month at an AT.
