Humayun Khan, Unit 7&8, 2nd Floor,

Respondents.
Pursuant to Section 766.24 of the
Export Administration Regulations
(‘‘EAR’’),1 the Bureau of Industry and
Security (‘‘BIS’’), U.S. Department of
Commerce, through its Office of Export
Enforcement (‘‘OEE’’), has requested
that I renew for 180 days an Order
temporarily denying export privileges of
Pakland PME Corporation, (‘‘Pakland’’),
Unit 7&8, 2nd Floor, Mohammadi Plaza,
Jinnah Avenue, Blue Area, F–6/4,

Avenue, Blue Area, F–6/4, Islamabad44000, Pakistan (hereinafter collectively
referred to as the ‘‘Respondents’’).
On January 31, 2005, Acting Assistant
Secretary for Export Enforcement
Wendy Wysong found that evidence
1 The EAR are at 15 CFR Parts 730–774 (2005).
The EAR are issued under the Export
Administration Act of 1979, as amended (50 U.S.C.
app. sections 2401–2420 (2000)) (‘‘EAA’’). The EAA
lapsed on August 21, 2001. However, the President,
through Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001
(3 CFR, 2001 Comp. 783 (2002)), as extended by the
Notice of August 2, 2005, (70 FR 45273 (August 5,
2005), has continued the EAR in effect under the
International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50
U.S.C. 1701–1706 (2000)).

presented by BIS demonstrated that the
Respondents conspired to do acts that
violated the EAR and did in fact commit
numerous violations of the EAR by
participating in the unlicensed export of
triggered spark gaps and oscilloscopes,
items controlled for nuclear nonproliferation reasons, to Pakistan.
Acting Assistant Secretary Wysong
further found that such violations had
been significant, deliberate and covert,
and were likely to occur again,
especially given the nature of the
structure and relationships of the
Respondents.
On August 1, 2005, Acting Assistant
Secretary Wysong was presented
additional evidence that Khan has been
indicted for his role in the illegal
exports of triggered spark gaps and
oscilloscopes to Pakistan. In addition,
OEE presented evidence that Khan and
Pakland have refused to return to the
United States an oscilloscope that was
sent to Pakistan for demonstration
purposes only. Acting Assistant
Secretary Wysong again found that such
violations had been significant,
deliberate and covert, and were likely to
occur again, especially given the nature
of the structure and relationships of the
Respondents.
OEE has not provided any additional
evidence regarding Khan or Pakland in
this renewal, however, because the
previously identified violations were
significant, deliberate, covert, and likely
to occur again, and because of the
serious nature of the items which Khan
and Pakland diverted and attempted to
divert to Pakistan, I find that it is
necessary in the public interest to
prevent an imminent violation of the
EAA and the EAR that Khan and
Pakland’s export privileges be denied
for a period of 180 days from the date
of the expiration of the previous denial
of Khan and Pakland’s export privileges.
All parties to this TDO have been given
notice of the request for renewal.
It is therefore ordered:
First, that the Respondents, Pakland
PME Corporation, (‘‘Pakland’’), Unit
7&8, 2nd Floor, Mohammadi Plaza,
Jinnah Avenue, Blue Area, F–6/4,
Islamabad-44000, Pakistan and,

successors and assigns and when acting
on behalf of any of the Respondents,

service involves the use of any item

be exported from the United States. For
purposes of this paragraph, servicing
means installation, maintenance, repair,
