Prosecutors seized the hospital records on Wednesday of two disgraced sprinters who withdrew from the Olympics after missing a doping test and crashing on a motorcycle.
Prosecutors Spyros Mouzakitis and Athina Theodoropoulou visited Athens' KAT trauma hospital and left with files containing the hospitalisation records of Kostas Kenteris, the 200-metre gold medallist in 2000, and Katerina Thanou, who took silver in the 100 metres in Sydney, a source in the Athens prosecutors office said.
The two athletes crashed on a motorcycle and were hospitalised a few hours after they could not be found at the Olympic Village for a drug test.
They were hospitalised for four days with cuts and bruises, which prolonged an International Olympic Committee investigation into whether they evaded the test. A medical examiner who examined them, however, reportedly did not think their injuries merited hospitalisation.
They have denied any wrongdoing.
An investigation ordered by chief Athens prosecutor Dimitris Papangeolopoulos has expanded far beyond the suspicious motorcycle accident.
Fraud inspectors with Greece's Finance Ministry searched the offices of their coach, Chritos Tsekos, for six hours Monday, seizing documents and computers from his food supplements company near central Athens.
The search of Tsekos' facilities was part of an inquiry into whether Kenteris and Thanou tried to avoid being tested for banned substances.
