The AT dismissed the appeal challenging property attachment under money laundering proceedings involving large-scale misappropriation of scholarship funds. The tribunal rejected appellant's contention that no prosecution complaint was filed within 365 days, holding that attachment proceedings protect property until investigation conclusion and trial completion. The tribunal found sufficient evidence linking appellant to money laundering offenses, noting appellant's admission regarding fund sources from the consultancy company operating the educational institute. The tribunal emphasized that properties can be attached from any person possessing proceeds of crime, regardless of whether they are accused in the predicate offense. The tribunal concluded sufficient incriminating material existed against appellants for receiving proceeds of crime, dismissing all grounds of appeal.
