Dr Eufemiano Fuentes's trial in Madrid comes nearly seven years after police raided his offices and seized some 200 bags of blood which were linked to a number of top cyclists. Dozens of cyclists have been called to testify as witnesses in the trial.
Should be interesting.....to say the least

He is charged with “endangering public health” rather than with running a doping ring. I would have thought accessory to fraud would have been more on target
