Anti-Money Laundering Law

1- The Public Prosecution, either of its own motion or upon request by the Directorate of financial intelligence or the criminal investigating officer, based on a suspicion of money laundering or a predicate offence, may order the provisional seizure of funds that are or may become subject to confiscation for a period not exceeding 60 days. An order under this Article shall be issued and executed without prior notice to the party concerned. An order under this Article may be extended for a longer period pursuant to a judicial order from the competent court but shall not prejudice the rights of bona fide third parties. 2- Upon the issuance of the provisional seizure, the Public Prosecution may determine that the funds subject to the order remain under the management of the person that held an interest in it at the time of issuance of the order or a third party, or such funds be transferred by order from the competent court to a designated authority if this is deemed necessary to mitigate the risk of dissipation of the funds.
