Attachment of property under PMLA is discussed in the context of alleged proceeds of crime arising from scheduled offences, where the Adjudicating Authority issued a show cause notice on the basis of the original complaint, relied-upon documents and statements under section 50, and later confirmed the provisional attachment. The appeals were carried to the Appellate Tribunal under SAFEMA. A specific contention noted in the source is that attachment of property acquired before 01-07-2005, the commencement of PMLA, is not valid in law; the Tribunal is stated to have dealt with that issue along with the other grounds raised.
