https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=279137 Section 102 of the Code of Criminal Procedure permits seizure of property suspected to be connected with an offence and requires reporting to the Magistrate, but does not authorise police to direct banks to prohibit account operations. Bank-account restraints issued as blanket prohibitory directions were therefore required to be withdrawn. A condition requiring both petitioners and the housing board to report the use of returned building materials was excessive because the petitioners had no control after handover; the reporting obligation was confined to the board. Refusal to return demand drafts remained justified during an ongoing investigation because the drafts were linked to alleged fraudulent transactions and the refusal rested on relevant considerations. en-us Fri, 10 Sep 1993 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 05 Mar 2019 14:17:06 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=279137 Section 102 of the Code of Criminal Procedure permits seizure of property suspected to be connected with an offence and requires reporting to the Magistrate, but does not authorise police to direct banks to prohibit account operations.
