National Director of Public Prosecutions v Abrina 6822 and Others

Authority holds that ss 38(2) and 50(1) of POCA, where they provide for preservation and forfeiture orders to be made in respect of property constituting the proceeds of unlawful activities, are not confined to cases where the activities constitute organised crime, money laundering and criminal gang activities or other offences created in terms of POCA. The sections may be invoked where the property in question constitutes the proceeds of a common law offence, such as fraud.
