Special Court jurisdiction in money laundering enables direct cognizance and committal to consolidate trials where warranted. A Special Court under the Act may take cognizance of money laundering on complaint by an authorised authority without committal, require committal of related scheduled offences from other courts, and conduct trials under the Code of Criminal Procedure as for a Court of Session; authorised authorities must file a closure report if investigation does not disclose money laundering. The Special Court's jurisdiction during investigation, enquiry or trial is independent of orders in respect of the scheduled offence, and the High Court's bail powers under the Code remain unaffected.
