Case Laws     Money Laundering     HC

Breach of bank secrecy led to collection of financial information from accounts used for money laundering by a transnational criminal organization. Proceedings under PMLA initiated, with an appeal against Section 8(1) order lying to the Appellate Tribunal within 45 days. Chapter IX deals with reciprocal arrangements with contracting states. Corruption negatively impacts investment motivation, diverts funds for economic and social upliftment, and results in tax revenue losses, hindering economic growth. All grounds raised by the petitioner failed, leading to dismissal of the petition.
