Ägaren av Phuket Top Team gymmet i Phuket, Thailand avslöjade i dagarna de häpnadsväckande detaljerna kring UFC-mästarinnan Cris Cyborg Justinos dopingkontroll som skedde i hans lokal. Detta redogjorde han genom ett långt inlägg via sociala medier. Där berättade han att polisen tillkallades till gymmet när Cyborg oväntat fått besök av två dopingkontrollanter.
I inlägget berättade han att hans personal såg två individer som checkade in på gymmet och som betedde sig ”underligt” mot Cyborg.
Klockan 6 på kvällen knackade dessa personer på Cyborgs hotellrum och hotellpersonalen underrättade i sin tur Phuket Top Teams personal om detta.
The hotel staff told my front desk that they heard the people requesting a urine sample.
In Thailand the only people who do this are police. Unable to contact Cris by phone My staff rang the local police to ask why they would send people to her residence.
Polisen skickade en polisbil till gymmet för att undersöka situationen som uppstått. Dopingkontrollanterna berättade då att de befann sig där på semester. Efter att polisen pratat med Cyborg, och då blivit varse om att personerna var dopingkontrollanter, blev dessa två individer anhållna då de inte hade rätt visum att genomföra sådant arbete i Thailand.
Gymägaren hävdade även att en av kontrollanterna till och med försökte muta den Thailändska polisen.
To further escalate the situation one of the testers attempted to offer money to the Thai police in exchange for them to be let go without incident.
Cris was uninvolved in the police and immigration issues other than providing answers to the police when questioned
Gymägaren berättade även via Twitter att både personalen för hotellet och Phuket Top Team ringde polisen då båda dessa ansåg kontrollanternas närvaro vara så pass suspekt att detta var nödvändigt.

Fake news aside, here’s the first hand on the spot happenings of the situation.
As owner of Phuket Top Team I feel I should fill in some of the missing info. My Thai staff was made aware of several people believed to be ”stalking” Cris cyborg, as they would not identify themselves.
We were told by our staff that 2 people checked into a hotel room next to cris and were acting strange by asking questions about them. Cyborg was placed in an exclusive location to provide her privacy while training at my gym.
Initially my staff thought the couple were just overly excited fans.
At 6am those people knocked on the door of the of Cris’s bungalow and the hotel staff notified my office of the disturbance.
The hotel staff told my front desk that they heard the people requesting a urine sample.
In Thailand the only people who do this are police. Unable to contact Cris by phone My staff rang the local police to ask why they would send people to her residence.
The police stated they had no knowledge of any officers at that hotel, and sent a patrol car to investingate.
It was after the police arrived that they discovered the pair was from Singapore.
Speaking directly to Cris they learned that the testers where checked into the hotel to do their job of collecting a urine sample for testing and not on vacation.
The police further investigated the situation to discover that neither employee had a valid work permit and when questioned both individuals from Singapore failed to mention they were part of any international testing agency, instead informing the officers on site they were only in Phuket for Vacation.
Allowing them to initially leave, the police later detained them upon reviewing paperwork completed during the testing. and later discovering that they were wearing uniforms and in the presence of work ID’s.
Cris cyborg complied with the entire process, giving her sample as she was unaware of the issues with them not having a valid work permit until the test was completed and the local authorities arrived to investigate the situation.
The issue for the police was two part.
First The Singaporean collectors made false statements denying they were here working and to collect urine samples. In Thailand the country is big on saving ”face” and having two Singaporeans lie about their purpose on the island did not sit well with them.
Second since they were here working without a permit they did not provide the country with the proper taxes for conducting business in Thailand.
To further escalate the situation one of the testers attempted to offer money to the Thai police in exchange for them to be let go without incident.
Cris was uninvolved in the police and immigration issues other than providing answers to the police when questioned.
The entire process was started by the hotel staff notifying my front desk of a disturbance at our VIP guests residence and was further escalated by the false statements made to the police by the testing agency
