Directorate of Enforcement, <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/1Te2LYTN\">(2015) 16 SCC 1<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Further, in the case of <em>Union of India v. Varinder Singh<\/em>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/9p27Ei57\">2017 SCC OnLine SC 1314<\/a>, Supreme Court observed that Section 45 of the PMLA Act imposes conditions for the grant of bail. Bail cannot be granted without complying with the requirements of Section 45 of PMLA Act.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Bench expressed that the PMLA Act, 2002 deals with the offence of money laundering and Parliament enacted this law to deal and curb the activities of money laundering.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #008080;\">The provisions of Code of Criminal Procedure will not be applicable until there is no specific provision given in PML Act, 2002.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Elaborating further, Court stated that offences like money laundering are committed with proper conspiracy, deliberate design with the motive of personal gain regardless of the consequences to the society and economy of the Country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hence, for money launderers \u201cjail is the rule and bail is an exception\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Concluding the matter, Court held that on prima facie reading of material on record and considering parameters of Section 45(1) PMLA as well as the gravity of the alleged offences, the applicant was not guilty of the alleged offences or that he was not likely to commit such offence while on bail.
