Money-laundering liability under the PMLA concerns processes connected with proceeds of crime, rather than merely commission of the scheduled offence. The notes state that, at discharge stage, the Special Court examines only whether the complaint and accompanying material disclose the statutory ingredients and a prima facie case; it cannot assess the correctness of pending predicate offences.
