Action Affecting Export Privileges;
Pakland PME Corporation and
Humayun Khan; Order Temporarily
Denying Export Privileges
In the Matter of: Pakland PME Corporation,
Unit 7 & 8, 2nd Floor, Mohammadi Plaza,
Jinnah Avenue, Blue Area, F–6/4, Islamabad–
44000, Pakistan, and, Humayun Khan, Unit
7 & 8, 2nd Floor, Mohammadi Plaza, Jinnah
Avenue, Blue Area, F–6/4, Islamabad–44000,
Pakistan, Respondents.
Pursuant to Section 766.24 of the
Export Administration Regulations
(‘‘EAR’’),1 the Bureau of Industry and
1 The EAR, which are currently codified at 15
CFR Parts 730–774 (2004), are issued under the
Export Administration Act of 1979, as amended (50
U.S.C. app. 2401–2420—) (2000) (the ‘‘Act’’). From
August 21, 1994 through November 12, 2000, the

Security (‘‘BIS’’), U.S. Department of
Commerce, through its Office Export
Enforcement (‘‘OEE’’), has requested
that I issue an Order temporarily
denying the export privileges under the
EAR of Pakland PME Corporation
(‘‘Pakland’’), Unit 7 & 8, 2nd Floor,
Mohammadi Plaza, Jinnah Avenue, Blue
Area, F–6/4, Islamabad–44000, Pakistan,
and Humayun Khan (‘‘Khan’’), Unit 7 &
8, 2nd Floor, Mohammadi Plaza, Jinnah
Avenue, Blue Area, F–6/4, Islamabad–
44000, Pakistan (hereinafter collectively
referred to as the ‘‘Respondents’’).
In its request, BIS has presented
evidence that shows that Pakland and
Khan, the owner and operator of
Pakland, conspired with others, known
and unknown, to cause items subject o
the EAR to be illegally exported to
Pakistan, that they caused and
attempted to cause exports of items
controlled for nuclear non-proliferation
reasons to Pakistan with knowledge that
violations of the EAR would occur, and
that they took actions intended to evade
the EAR.
Specifically, the evidence shows that,
from July 2003 through January 2004,
Respondents conspired to have triggered
spark gaps 2 and oscilloscopes 3 items
included on the Commerce Control List
and controlled for nuclear nonproliferation reasons, exported from the
United States to Pakistan without the
required BIS export licenses. The
evidence also shows that Respondents
developed and implemented a scheme
to avoid the requirements of the EAR by
causing these items exported through
South Africa to Pakistan. More
specifically, pursuant to direction from
Respondents, on or about August 1,
2003, a purchase order for 200 triggered
spark gaps was submitted to a U.S.
Act was in lapse. During that period, the President,
through Executive Order 12924, which had been
extended by successive Presidential Notices, the
last of which was August 3, 2000 ((3 CFR, 2000
Comp. 397 (2001)), continued the EAR in effect
under the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701–1707 (2000))
(‘‘IEEPA’’). On November 13, 2000, the Act was
reauthorized and it remained in effect through
August 20, 2001. Since August 21, 2001, the Act has
been in lapse and the President, through Executive
Order 13222 of August 17, 2001 (3 CFR, 2001 Comp
783 (2002)), as extended by the Notice of August
6, 2004, (69 Federal Register 48763 (August 10,
2004)), continued the Regulations in effect under
the IEEPA.
2 Triggered spark gaps are electronic switches that
deliver a very high voltage with a very short delay
once switched. Triggered spark gaps are used in
medical lithotripters to disintegrate gallstones and
kidney stones and are also used as triggers for
nuclear weapons.
3 Oscilloscopes are used for testing and assembly
of electronic equipment, and can be used in the
development of nuclear weapons. The oscilloscopes
in question are controlled under ECCN 3A292 and
require a license for export to Pakistan for nuclear
non-proliferation reasons.
