Paresha G. Shah vs State Of Gujarat & 2 on 15 June, 2015
71. With much respect to the view of the Hon‟ble Gujarat High
Court, this Court is unable to agree with the view as expressed in
Paresha G. Shah v. State of Gujarat and Ors. (supra). An order of
freezing under Section 102 of Cr.P.C. cannot be considered to be in aid
of order of provisional attachment passed under Section 5(1) of the
PMLA or an order of seizure and/or freezing of property under Section
17(1A) of the PMLA. Both the orders under Section 5(1) and under
Section 17 of the PMLA are orders of interim nature and are operative
for a limited period till pending adjudication under Section 8 of the Act
and further confiscation of the property. Orders of freezing of property
passed under section 17(1A) of the PMLA or provisional attachment
are by their nature provisional orders that require confirmation. Such
powers are exercised in emergent situations warranting passing such
orders. The contention that an order of provisional freezing is in aid of
provisional attachment is plainly unpersuasive.
