Property confiscation process: attachment and freezing may be confirmed during proceedings and culminate in statutory confiscation.

Adjudication empowers the Adjudicating Authority to issue notices requiring disclosure of income and assets where there is reason to believe money laundering or possession of proceeds of crime; it must consider replies, hear interested parties including third party claimants, and record findings whether properties are involved in money laundering. If property is found involved, the Authority confirms attachment, retention, seizure or freezing and such measures continue during investigation or pending proceedings and become final on a statutory confiscation order; the Special Court may order confiscation, release or restoration to legitimate claimants subject to conditions.
