Amendment of section 60.
176. In section 60 of the Money-laundering Act, in sub-section (2A), for the words “Adjudicating Authority”, the words “Special Court” shall be substituted.
Notes on Clauses:
Clause 176 of the Bill seeks to amend section 60 of the 2002 Act relating to attachment, seizure and confiscation, etc., of property in a contracting State or India. The power of confiscation vests with Special Court and not the Adjudicating Authority as mentioned in sub-section (2A) of section 60. Thus, this clause seeks to substitute the words “Adjudicating Authority” with the “Special Court”.
