September 27, 2024

Bail application rejected in money laundering case involving collection of large amounts by promising job opportunities, offences under IPC and Prevention of Corruption Act.

Delay in disposal of cases discussed, existence of scheduled offence necessary for proceeds of crime under PMLA. Higher threshold for bail in certain penal statutes like PMLA to secure objects. Expeditious trial warranted considering stringent bail provisions.
