ED has quasi-judicial powers under PMLA and can attach properties, seize assets, and arrest without producing an ECIR. The rules of evidence and procedure are stricter.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-start=\"7979\" data-end=\"8019\">Q2: Can ED arrest me without notice?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-start=\"8020\" data-end=\"8195\">Under PMLA, the ED can arrest without a prior FIR. But legal remedy is available through anticipatory bail and writ petitions. Contacting a lawyer quickly is critical.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-start=\"8197\" data-end=\"8239\">Q3: What is the punishment under PMLA?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-start=\"8240\" data-end=\"8394\">Under Section 4 of PMLA, punishment can range from 3 to 7 years, and up to 10 years in NDPS-linked offences, with fines and property confiscation.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-start=\"8396\" data-end=\"8460\">Q4: How much time does ED take to complete an investigation?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-start=\"8461\" data-end=\"8608\">There is no fixed timeframe, and investigations can continue for months. However, once a complaint is filed, the Special PMLA Court takes over.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is one of India\u2019s most powerful agencies tasked with probing economic offences, money laundering, and violations of foreign exchange laws.
