22 h, oct 29, 2021 y - DAILY MAIL Amber Heard is under investigation for perjury: lied to Australian officials

Description:

Amber Heard is being investigated for perjury in an FBI-backed probe into claims she lied to Australian officials after smuggling her dogs into the country in 2015, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.

The 35-year-old actress avoided biosecurity charges after she publicly apologized and blamed a lack of sleep for jetting into the country without the required paperwork for Yorkshire Terriers Pistol and Boo.

But Aussie authorities are revisiting the smuggling spat as a perjury investigation after fresh details dredged up at last year's UK libel trial between Heard's ex, Johnny Depp, and The Sun newspaper, called her explanation into question.

Depp's former estate manager Kevin Murphy raised eyebrows Down Under when he told the London court that Heard had ordered him to lie on oath after she flew the pets into Queensland in a private jet without declaring them.
