The AT set aside the impugned order in FEMA proceedings due to reliance on an unauthenticated foreign document in German pertaining to a foreign trust and bank account. The document, central to the case and originating abroad, was not authenticated as required by law. The appellants denied any knowledge or involvement with the foreign account and trust, and no contradictory evidence was presented by the respondent.
