The Prevention of Money‑Laundering (Restoration of Confiscated Property) Amendment Rules, 2019 (G.S.R. 23(E), dated 11 January 2019) amend the 2016 Rules by renaming and introducing Rule 3A, which empowers Special Courts—after framing charges under the Prevention of Money‑Laundering Act, 2002—to publish notices in newspapers inviting claimant interests in attached, seized, or frozen properties. These provisions establish timelines for filing claims, ensure hearing rights for owners or their heirs, and allow for partial restoration or auction with proportional disbursement to victims, thereby streamlining the process for reclaiming non-tainted assets during trial
