Australian gets a year in jail for suitcase full of steroids from Thailand.
A man has been jailed for a year for trying to bring steroids into far north Queensland.
Local man Ian Moore, 52, was detained at Cairns airport on January 26 after arriving from Thailand with a litre of liquid steroids, 1.25kg of suspected steroid tablets and 30 injectable vials of human growth hormone.
During the examination, Customs and Border Protection officers located a one litre bottle of liquid labelled as shower crème. The liquid was tested and returned a positive result for steroids.
During further searching, a number of packages were removed from the clothing Mr Moore was wearing. These packages contained 1.25 kilograms of suspected steroid tablets, two bottles of Oxandrolene steroid tablets, two bottles of Clenbuterol steroid tablets and thirty injectable vials of Human Growth Hormone.
In the Cairns Magistrates Court on Wednesday, Moore pleaded guilty to importing and attempting to import restricted goods and with making a false statement.
He was sentenced to 12 months in prison and fined $2500.
