The Attorney General brought a motion for a preservation order under the Civil Remedies Act, 2001 for $66,760 in Canadian currency seized by police during a search of a residence.
The court found reasonable grounds to believe the currency was the proceeds or instrument of unlawful activity, noting the presence of bundled cash and firearms.
As no evidence was presented to show the order would not be in the interests of justice, the preservation motion was granted pending the disposition of the forfeiture application.
