Former pro cyclist Jesus Manzano, who used to ride for Kelme-Costa Blanca and spoke of massive doping practices within the team after quitting the sport, has accused Manolo Saiz' legal representative, Carlos Bueren, of trying to buy his silence in the Operación Puerto affair. According to national newspaper El País, Manzano alleged that Bueren offered him between 25 and 30 million Pesetas (approx. 150,000-180,000 Euros) if he stopped bis involvement in the legal case. Bueren has not commented the allegations.
