Case Law Details
Dilliraj Vs Deputy Director (Madras High Court)
HC held that we are unable to persuade ourselves to agree with the Enforcement Directorate that the salaries and perquisites that were paid to Dilliraj (A.1) while he was in employment with FLCI would amount to proceeds of crime and any property purchased with that would stand tainted. Albeit the presumption under Section 24 of the PML Act, on facts, we hold that the impugned prosecution of Dilliraj (A.1) and his wife Kotieswari (A.2) under the PML Act is misconceived and the same is accordingly quashed.
