The PMLA seeks to combat money laundering in India and has three main objectives:
To prevent and control money laundering
To confiscate and seize the property obtained from the laundered money; and
To deal with any other issue connected with money laundering in India.
Proceeds of Crime : When money or wealth, in any form, generated or derived through illegal means or sources is injected into main stream of finance duly disguising the source of money or wealth as legal by a sequence of malafide process, a case of Money Laundering is made out. In other words, the money or wealth derived through illegal or criminal activity or process in terms of “Scheduled Offence” is termed as “Proceeds of Crime”.
Support of Competent Advocate : This is where a genuine person, erroneously looped in to investigation under PMLA and vested with the burden of proof, needs the support of a competent and promising Lawyer to put all facts and figures in proper presentation before the Adjudicating Authority and Appellate Tribunal to prove himself not guilty.
