Title: us snubs out legal cigar transaction Post by: Puppet on February 04, 2013, 11:05:50 PM Authorities in the US have refused to return 137,000 kroner that was confiscated from a Danish policeman who attempted to legally purchase Cuban cigars from Germany.
Torben Nødskouv intended to resell the cigars through his small business Cigarhuset and made the transaction in dollars with a Hamburg-based distributor. But the transaction, which was automatically routed through the US, was picked up by American authorities who froze the money, arguing that the transaction violated the American trade embargo with Cuba http://cphpost.dk/news/international/us-snubs-out-legal-cigar-transaction Maybe next time he will use bitcoin :). |
