Eviction Notice Under Section 8(4) of PMLA Upheld, Technical Non-Compliance Does Not Invalidate Legal Proceedings

April 29, 2025

Case Laws     Money Laundering     HC

HC held that the eviction notice under Section 8(4) of PMLA is valid and within jurisdiction. The court found that non-compliance with Rule 5(1) does not vitiate the notice under Rule 5(2), as these provisions serve different purposes. The lack of a mandatory time limit for issuing the notice does not invalidate it. The court directed the Appellate Tribunal to expeditiously hear the petitioner's appeal and stay application within two months, effectively dismissing the petitioner's challenge as premature given the pending appeal.
