Electronic records relied on in customs penalty proceedings require prescribed certification, and an uncertified text-message printout has no evidentiary value where no forensic material links it to the alleged user. Such material cannot implicate a Customs officer in attempted illegal export of foreign currency. Abetment further requires proof of intentional aiding and active complicity; an uncorroborated co-noticee statement, absent recovery, CCTV, or independent-witness support, does not establish it. Failure to detect concealed currency during routine examination is insufficient. On these grounds, the penalty for abetment was set aside with consequential relief.
