Both ranges are from RIPE region and couldn't be announced from
ARIN ASN at all.

Your premise is incorrect.  Any block from any RIR can be announced
by any ASN.
1) All routing data must be present at the RIPE DB. If you work with 
RIPE DB you could see that webtools don't allow you to create route
to ASN not from RIPE region.
2) RIPE IP Usage policy don't allow to route RIPE IPs from non-RIPE
region.

This is not true, I have seen several instances of IPs from RIPE being
used in the US, by people in Europe.
