The Tribunal held that the dominant issue was whether property acquired before the predicate offence could be provisionally attached as "proceeds of crime" under Section 2(1)(u). Applying the second limb of the definition-where original proceeds are not traceable-the authority may attach property of equivalent value; precedent support was invoked.
