Dream Multimedia closed by the police

40 Custom Officers and Police Officers broke in Dream Multimedia's HQ
offices in Lunen (Germany).
The warrant search was extended to private houses of CEOs and share
holders (T*m Ziem*nn, K*y Ziem*nn, Jur*en Leu*ring, Di*k Gl*nz and
the turkish Asl*n).

The break-in is apparently motivated to a Custom malicious wrong
declaration of embedded modems on DreamBox's STB. At present
private belongings of the owners of Dream Multimedia have been
confiscated. Rumors say that Custom is claiming 6 years of importing
DreamBox STB without paying import duties due to the embedded modem.

Presumably searches would be extended to all companies that have been
importing DreamBox Set-Top-Boxes in the next coming months for duties
claims in Germany and almost all EU countries as it is now proven that the
non-working modem was installed for tax scams only.

Up to now all the stock is under Custom’s block and no goods will be officially
released. It seems that border inspection on DreamBox Set-Top-Boxes and
the well known clones of DreamBox will be strongly enlarged limiting the
import of this items in the European territory.

Informers are reporting that this has to be considered the final Knock-Out
to the most famous audiovisual company worldwide and that it all started
from provider’s pressure on stopping Dream Multimedia from producing this
STB becoming more and more popular for the ground breaking card-sharing
phenomenon.
