Money-laundering bail requires a foundational nexus between property and criminal activity relating to a scheduled offence: later dealings with assets do not establish laundering unless the assets are first shown to be proceeds of crime. Refinancing or repayment arrangements involving borrowings during the alleged offence period may require trial scrutiny but may not, without sufficient material, establish that assets acquired earlier derive from that activity. The statutory twin conditions require reasonable grounds of non-guilt and a finding that further offending is unlikely. Article 21 limits prolonged pre-trial detention where an enlarged, document-heavy prosecution and continuing investigation make timely trial completion unrealistic; risks to witnesses, evidence, and assets may be managed through bail conditions.
