Commerce Denies Export Privileges for Illegal Exports to Syria

The Commerce Department denied export privileges for Marjan Caby after Caby violated the Export Administration Regulations, Commerce said in a Jan. 17 order. The violations stem from a scheme involving a Miami-based company, its manager and its registered agent, whose export privileges were revoked in November for violating the EAR by illegally exporting aircraft parts and equipment to Syrian Arab Airlines (see 1911130043). Caby worked as the “internal auditor” for AW-Tronics/Arrowtronic, the company named in the order, and helped the shipments evade U.S. export controls by directing them to Bulgaria before they were eventually shipped to Syria, Commerce said. Caby’s export privileges were revoked for four years from the date of the order.
