      Solution

      Under Section 4 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, the offence of money laundering is punishable with rigorous imprisonment for a term of not less than three years, which may extend to seven years, and is also liable to fine. Where the proceeds of crime relate to certain offences under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, the maximum imprisonment may extend to ten years. The stringent punishment reflects the seriousness with which the law treats the laundering of criminal proceeds.
