Special court lets Choksi's seized assets be monetised

|December 11, 2024
MUMBAI: A special court in Mumbai on Tuesday permitted the monetisation of assets worth over ₹2,500 crore that were attached or seized by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) as part of its money-laundering probe against fugitive diamantaire Mehul Choksi in the alleged Punjab National Bank (PNB) fraud case.
Properties worth over ₹125 crore have been handed over to the liquidator as part of the process, ED said.
The decision by a special Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) court followed an application from the victim banks - PNB and ICICI Bank - for initiating the restitution process under PMLA Act.
The application, backed by ED, was pending for decision since November 2022 and such delay in the release/restoration of properties was delaying the recovery of public funds, the applicants said.
