Accusations of drugs cheating against Russian athletes carry echoes for some of East Germany's systematic doping programme which ran from the 1970s right through to the 1980s. The man responsible for uncovering the use of sports enhancing drugs by East German athletes was Dr. Werner Franke, who spoke to Newsday about the parallels between then and now.
