Statements recorded under section 108 without the mandatory procedure in section 138B(1)(b) were treated as inadmissible where coercion was alleged and medical evidence supported assault; therefore those statements could not underpin rejection of declared transaction value under Rule 12 or re-determination under Rule 9 of the CVR, 2007. Emails and attached invoices whose provenance was not satisfactorily established while the appellant was in custody were also excluded. Consequently, treatment of the appellant as beneficial owner and consequent demands, penalties and confiscation founded on the unsupported valuation and inadmissible evidence were set aside.
