HONG KONG: A gold-medal winning bodybuilder at the Doha Asian Games bribed his way into the event after being suspended from competition for failing a drugs test, a Hong Kong court heard yesterday.
Chan Yun-to, 43, is accused of conspiring to offer US$10,000 in bribes to Paul Chua, secretary-general of the Asian Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation, to enter the Games in 2006. He later won the men’s 75kg class. Yun-to has not been charged in the case.
