What will happen if the Adjudicating Authority records the finding that all or any of the properties are not involved in money laundering?
In such cases, the Adjudicating Authority shall direct the release of all properties other than the properties involved in money-laundering to the person from whom such properties were seized. [Section 20 (5) However, the Director or any other officer authorised by him in this behalf, may withhold the release of any property until filing of appeal under section 26 or forty-five days from the date of order under sub-section (5), whichever is earlier, if he is of the opinion that such property is relevant for the proceedings before the Appellate Tribunal.
