Could you please explain that for me? Gibson's name wasn't on any of the export paperwork. Luthier Mercantile's name was.
The customs documents filled out in India (probably not by Luthier Mercantile, because the company, privately owned, only has offices in California, and employs fewer than 20 employees, but possibly by Gibson, because Gibson has an office and employees in India - although Gibson has a firm it uses for its import/export work) incorrectly described the contents of the two containers.
The export paperwork authorized the export of the items described on the paperwork - which wasn't what was in the containers.
The containers entered customs at the Dallas customs port. They were stopped there because there was no Lacy Act paperwork. Gibson's name didn't appear on any of the import documentation. When the containers were opened - the contents didn't match what was on the import documents.
You can read the rest of my post above for how the Dallas shipment eventually led to Gibson.
What business is it of the government? Seriously! Why is it any of their damned business at all?
How are you harmed by the action of this company?
What was the discrepancy between the decscripton of the contents and the contents?
Did it say wood and it was drugs?
Did it say wood and it was brass?
Did it say brown wood and it was dark brown wood?
Could you give us a source for these accusations referring to import papers you are talking about? I have not seen any evidence of this in even left-wing media sources.
The CEO of Gibson has said (in his YouTube clip) that they have sworn affidavits from numerous members of India’s parliament stating that Obama’s administration is misinterpreting India’s law and that Gibson acted legally.
