The text addresses provisional attachment of alleged proceeds of crime: sale proceeds from shares purchased by the appellant and later sold to a bona fide third party do not constitute proceeds of crime in the appellant's hands because the purchase was an outgo and consideration paid was not shown to be derived from criminal activity; returns to the innocent purchaser are bona fide.
