Criminal Attachment Order
When the Financial Crimes Commission (FCC) applies for a Criminal Attachment Order, a judge can issue it if there are reasonable grounds to believe that the alleged offender is charged with or convicted of an offense, or is under criminal investigation, and that the property in question is proceeds or an instrumentality of the offense, or a terrorist property. The order will prevent the property from being transferred or sold, allow the FCC to seize and secure the property, and direct the FCC to manage the property as instructed. This ensures that assets tied to criminal activities are controlled and managed properly during the criminal investigation period and court proceedings.
