Substitution of attached proceeds of crime with a bank guarantee does not justify release of identifiable immovable property under the PMLA. The statutory scheme aims to prevent enjoyment of assets derived from illegal activity and preserve them for confiscation or restitution. Releasing such property for use or transfer may enable its depletion, generate further funds, and legitimise income derived from it, undermining those objectives. The request for de-attachment and substitution with an equivalent bank guarantee was rejected, and the writ petition was dismissed.
