Whether provisional attachment under the PMLA was validly exercised: Court held that attachment requires the property to be "proceeds of crime" and material to show relation to a scheduled offence; absent evidence of criminal activity or that the predicate offence (Section 13 PC) was a scheduled offence at the relevant time, attachment was misplaced - appeal dismissed on merits.
