      Solution

      Explanation: Section 4 of the PMLA provides for punishment for money laundering. It prescribes rigorous imprisonment for a term which shall not be less than 3 years but may extend to 7 years. However, if the predicate offence is under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, the maximum punishment may extend to 10 years. Fine is also imposed in addition to imprisonment.
