https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=183505 Chapter VII-A of the Code of Criminal Procedure is confined to reciprocal international assistance between India and contracting States for arrest, attachment, forfeiture, tracing and identification of proceeds of crime. Its definitions, the reference to letters of request, and the control mechanism in Section 105-L show that the scheme targets cross-border crime, including terrorist activities, rather than ordinary domestic offences. Read in light of the Statement of Objects and Reasons and legislative background, the chapter cannot be extended by a broad literal interpretation to property allegedly derived from local offences. The statutory scheme therefore applies only to cross-border crime control and reciprocal assistance. en-us Mon, 01 Feb 2010 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 11 Jun 2016 12:00:28 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=183505 Chapter VII-A of the Code of Criminal Procedure is confined to reciprocal international assistance between India and contracting States for arrest, attachment, forfeiture, tracing and identification of proceeds of crime.
