“”The Federal Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. has suggested that the use of wood from India that is not finished by Indian workers is illegal, not because of U.S. law, but because it is the Justice Departments interpretation of a law in India.””
Exactly! This wood was considered legal by the authorities of India....and all the necessary documentation to prove it so was accepted by US Customs. There is quite ANOTHER motivation at work in the DOJ......AND NO other company using the same wood is subject to any such investigation/raid.
