The doctors of the university of Freiburg seems to have more sense of humor as Eufemiano Fuentes has. The codenames of
the athletes that received blood transfusions were charcters of Disney cartoons. That raises the question: who is Pluto?
In Saturdays edition of the Stuttgarter Zeitung it was announced that not only former T-Mobile pro Patrick Sinkewitz received a blood transfusion after the prologue of the
2006 Tour de France but at least four more T-Mobile riders traveled to Freiburg to receive a blood transfusion. In todays
edition of German daily newspaper 'Die Welt' the chairman of the commission that is investigating the role of the Freiburg
university in the Telekom scandal, Hans Joachim Schäfer claims that he suspects another member of his commission, German
professor Werner Franke, to have leaked information to the media without giving this information to the commission. Schäfer
said: "The Commission is not investigating five dopers."
Franke saw things different: "The theme 'Rhine convoy' was mentioned before the Commission last Tuesday. I even heard
Mr. Schäfer himself use the phrase. Everybody knows that Sinkewitz wasn't the only one." According to Schäfer Franke
jumps to conclusions. Franke says the commission is investigating to slow.
