Closure report requirement added - after investigation, closure report and complaint extension preserve independent trial and jurisdiction.

Amendment mandates that, if after investigation no money laundering offence necessitating a complaint is made out, the authority must submit a closure report to the Special Court. An Explanation provides that the Special Court's jurisdiction under the Act is not dependent on orders relating to the scheduled offence and that trials of both sets of offences by the same court are not joint trials. The complaint is deemed to include any subsequent complaint from further investigation to produce additional evidence against accused persons, named or unnamed.
