Case Laws Money Laundering HC

The HC held that the trial for offences under PMLA can continue independently even during the pendency of trial for the predicate offence. Since the nature of money laundering offence is distinct from predicate offences under IPC, they are unconnected. PMLA trial procedures are separate, so simultaneous trials are not mandatory. The accused cannot stall PMLA trial pending predicate offence trial. The petition for directing simultaneous trial was dismissed.
