Case Laws     Money Laundering     HC

HC denied bail in a money laundering case involving counterfeit anti-cancer drugs. The accused, a partner in a medicine hub, was arrested under PMLA for procuring and selling spurious medications including Keytruda and Opdyta. The Court found sufficient evidence through financial records, WhatsApp communications, and Section 50 PMLA statements demonstrating accused's involvement in illegal procurement and hawala transactions. The investigating agency established reasonable grounds for arrest per Section 19 PMLA, and accused failed to rebut presumption under Section 24. Court held twin conditions under Section 45 PMLA weren't satisfied given the gravity of offense, ongoing investigation, and substantial evidence linking accused to proceeds of crime through counterfeit medicine syndicate.
