Attachment of Properties - The Custodian sought to recover significant sums from different individuals or entities, claiming they were indebted to the notified party. - The Special Court directed the appellant to pay a sum of Rs. 50 lakhs with Interest - diversion of funds from the banks/FIs to the individual accounts of certain brokers - The Supreme Court addressed several key issues arising from the appeals under the Act of 1992, including the notification of individuals, recovery of dues, and the burden of proof. It clarified that property attachment under the Act occurs from the date of notification forward, not retroactively. The SC found it insufficient to establish the appellants' liabilities.
