Government nod must for PMLA case on public servant: SC
Wednesday, 6 November 2024 ()
In a landmark ruling, the Supreme Court mandated government approval before prosecuting public servants in money laundering cases. The court asserted that the Prevention of Money Laundering Act doesn't supersede the Criminal Procedure Code's requirement for prior sanction. This decision aims to safeguard honest officials from unwarranted prosecution, ensuring they are not penalized for actions taken while performing their duties.
