The HC upheld the attachment order under Sections 5(1) and 8(1) of the PMLA, finding sufficient material to form a reason to believe that the impugned property constituted proceeds of crime linked to scheduled offences under Section 384 read with 120B IPC. The court held that the Enforcement Authority need not produce direct evidence; circumstantial and financial trail analysis suffice to establish a prima facie nexus.

The attachment was deemed a preventive measure, not a final guilt determination. The HC affirmed the correctness of the Appellate Tribunal's reasoning and dismissed the appeal, confirming the legality and necessity of the attachment order pending further investigation and trial.
