How does the ED handle cybercrime cases in India

1. **Initiation**: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) initiates property attachment in cybercrime cases after receiving intelligence or complaints related to money laundering or economic offenses. 2. **Investigation**: The ED conducts a thorough investigation into the cybercrime case to establish the link between the crime and the properties suspected to be involved. 3. **Provisional Attachment**: A provisional attachment order is issued by the ED under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, enabling them to seize and attach properties identified as proceeds of the cybercrime. 4. **Adjudication Process**: The attached properties are then subjected to an adjudication process to determine if they are indeed linked to the cybercrime and should be confiscated. 5. **Legal Action**: The ED can take legal action against the individuals or entities involved in cybercrime and can seek forfeiture of the attached properties through the adjudication process.
