Provisional attachment under PMLA was reviewed: the forensic audit report was treated as guidance only because of express disclaimers and incomplete records, not as conclusive proof; the agency's independent investigation and documentary transfers to certain companies supported a proceeds-of-crime finding.

Consequentially, attachment of the Goa land parcel and properties of five subsequently constituted LLPs was set aside, while bank account attachment to the extent of balances and share-related attachments remain unaffected.
