Overview

PMLA Proceedings in Delhi

PMLA matters are governed by the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002, connected rules, Enforcement Directorate procedure, and the criminal procedure framework under the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. These matters may involve summons, statement recording, search, seizure, freezing of accounts, provisional attachment, Adjudicating Authority proceedings, complaint before Special Court, bail, trial, or appeal.

The case record is usually built around the alleged scheduled offence, proceeds of crime, financial trail, banking entries, property transactions, company records, digital material, statements, attachment record, and ED complaint. The approach depends on whether the matter is at summons stage, investigation stage, attachment stage, bail stage, Special Court stage, or appellate stage.

PMLA bail and attachment proceedings require separate review. Bail may involve statutory conditions, custody history, complaint record, role alleged, documentary material, health or family circumstances where relevant, and the stage of investigation or trial. Attachment proceedings may require a close review of property ownership, source of funds, bank trail, possession record, valuation, and written reply before the Adjudicating Authority.
