Title: Doping trial against Mark S. in Munich

Journalists cue to attend the trial against Mark S. on allegations of organized doping practices in Munich, Germany, 16 September 2020. The Erfurt-based German physician has supposedly provided illegal performance enhancing blood transfusions as a well-organized service to some 21 athletes from various disciplines, several of whom have confessed. His practice was uncovered during the multinational Investigation ‚Operation Aderlass‘ (Operation Bloodletting) after doping admissions by an Austrian cross-country skier in February 2019.
