In the dim past, I had a somewhat similar situation:
- A largish (national telco of a small country) ISP started announcing = address space a customer of theirs provided. Unfortunately, the address = space wasn't the ISP's customer's to provide. - When the ISP was notified by both their RIR and the organization to = which the address space was rightfully delegated, the ISP's response = was:
"We have a contractual relationship with our customer to announce that = space. We have neither a contractual relationship (in this context) = with the RIR nor the RIR's customer. The RIR and/or the RIR's customer = should resolve this issue with our customer."
It as an eye-opening experience.

And if I have a contract to commit murder that doesn't mean that it is right nor legal. A contract can't get you out of dealing with the law of the land and in most place in the world "aiding and abetting" is illegal.
