It really isn't the RIR's job to withdraw allocations due to bad
behaviour as much as many of us would like it to be.  Failure to
maintain valid contact details however is within the purview of the
RIRs.

If you are being attacked, report the attack to your LEA.  Let the
LEA's maintain intellegence on which networks are permitting attacks
to be launched from their address space.  They can work with LEA
in the network's juristiction to get the attacks stops and offenders
prosecuted.  LEA's can in theory also get courts to issue orders
to filter offending address blocks by all ISP's in their juristiction.
