Newton Scamander's Grade One Infraction of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy

A massive breach of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy was commited by Newt Scamander in December 1926, when he accidentaly swapped his magical suitcase with that of No-Maj Jacob Kowalski. Newt was arrested by Porpentina Goldstein, who subsequently helped him to recapture the beasts along with Jacob and her sister Queenie.

The memories of the No-Majs that had seen the beasts were erased using venom of the Swooping Evil.

Mr Scamander was, at least temporarily, banned from international travel for breaking the Statute.
