      2002, which of the following is the first step in the process of investigation into money laundering?
      A Attachment of property Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Filing of a charge sheet Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Initiation of proceedings by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Arrest of the accused Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Under the PMLA, 2002, the process of investigating money laundering begins with the Enforcement Directorate (ED) initiating proceedings upon receiving information that a person has committed an offence of money laundering. • Attachment of property is a later stage where the ED may attach the proceeds of crime. • Filing of a charge sheet and arrest of the accused follow after the investigation has progressed, based on evidence gathered. The Enforcement Directorate plays a crucial role in investigating and prosecuting cases of money laundering, ensuring that illegally acquired assets are traced and dealt with appropriately.
