Sydney - Hollywood star Sylvester
Stallone has provided medical documents to Australia's customs
after being charged with importing 48 vials of banned human
growth hormone, his lawyer told a Sydney court on Tuesday.
Stallone, who has not yet entered a plea, was not in the
Sydney court for the brief hearing. His case was adjourned
until May 15 to allow customs to examine Stallone's medical
material, which was not revealed in court.
Stallone's lawyer, John Chicken, said the matter should be
finalised soon. "We're certainly seeking to move to a
resolution," he told the court.
The Australian Customs Service has charged Stallone with
one count of importing a prohibited import when he was detained
at Sydney airport on February 16.
Customs said the 48 vials of prohibited human growth
hormone were found in his luggage. The maximum fine for the
offence is A$110 000 (US$91 600).
Stallone left Australia on February 19, after a three-day visit
to promote his new film, Rocky Balboa, bound for Thailand to
shoot his latest Rambo movie.
