Money-laundering prosecution is described as requiring a scheduled offence, proceeds of crime generated from that offence, and their projection as untainted, including knowing assistance in related processes. Challenges to investigation or discharge grounds in predicate offences are presented as outside the scope of the money-laundering proceeding.
