Frozen bank accounts cannot be retained under the PMLA unless foundational facts first show the existence of proceeds of crime and the account holder's link with the alleged laundering activity. The Tribunal found no material that the frozen funds were proceeds of crime or that the appellant was named in, or connected to, the predicate copyright offence; assertions of relationship, investment, or online betting were insufficient, and the burden could not shift on the Directorate's bare claim.

The retention order was therefore set aside.
