A lawsuit filed against the agency said it missed an April deadline either to return the money or start criminal proceedings. In both instances after the lawsuits were filed, the agency returned the money and property without bringing charges. A spokesman for the Customs and Border Protection said the agency doesn't comment on pending lawsuits. Kazazi was pulled aside into a private room at the Cleveland airport and strip-searched, the lawsuit said. They then seized the $58,000 without explanation but did not arrest him before allowing him to continue on the trip, he said in the lawsuit.
