‘3k cases in 180 days’: SC questions ED over PMLA adjudication
New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Tuesday questioned the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on the practice of allowing a single member of the PMLA adjudicating authority to decide cases involving attachment of properties, asking whether there could be genuine application of mind when thousands of matters had to be dealt with within the statutory 180-day period
New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate has ordered its zonal offices to identify 10 high-profile money-laundering cases in each region for rapid trial completion, aiming for convictions within six to eight months. This directive, announced at the ED's 36th Quarterly Conference of Zonal Officers on September 14-15, is part of the agency's broader strategy to significantly reduce the duration of money-laundering case proceedings.
