HC ruled the seizure of a luxury vehicle and freezing of a company's bank account under PMLA was illegal. No scheduled offences were established, and no substantive link existed between the petitioner's company and the alleged money laundering proceedings. The Enforcement Directorate failed to follow due process under Section 17 of PMLA, including recording proper belief and forwarding necessary documentation to the Adjudicating Authority.

While the current seizure and freezing were deemed unlawful, the court noted that future investigations could potentially pursue legal remedies if credible evidence emerges. Application allowed, with the vehicle and bank account to be released.
