As already mentioned a while ago on forum, cable ties can be removed if you push in the little "flap" that stops them coming undone.
Secondly, last trip, my husbands cable ties had been removed, also his tampertell things and also his padlock!! It was only to the flap on the outside of the case and it was hanging open and obviously empty, so he didn't freak. Actual case was still locked.
Customs have snips all ready for you, as I found out. We both had white crosses (travelled separately) Hubby noticed and went to loo (forgot wipes!!) I didn't even look. I actually didn't have anything that I was concerned about which was why I didn't notice, but they were concerned with a bottle of sun block!!
