at the WTO the shipment had been "temporarily deietnad" (not "seized"), obviously for the time needed to check the situation. He further said: "The goods were not intended for the EC market and the medicines were finally released by the authorities, leaving their (Indian) owner the right to do with these goods as he pleases." Dr. Reddy chose to have the consignment shipped back to India.This does not subtract anything from the observation that there is a big trade-versus-IP issue. But it would surely be better for the issue to be handled on the basis of facts (was there "transit"?) rather than emotion.And by the way, the Spicy IP has a sobering comment, "Why the big fuss over the Dutch seizing Dr. Reddy's patent infringing drugs during transit? India has done the same in the past".
