My channel is the biggest bodybuilding channel in the world world.”

The suspects could be charged with similar trafficking, association with the aim of dealing, as well as the crime of money laundering. Penalties can exceed 35 years in prison.

The action was conducted by the Federal Police, in collaboration with the Special Action Group for the Fight against Organized Crime (Gaeco do MPSP) of São Paulo, and the Federal Revenue Agency.
