this is covered by existing laws.
Proceeds involved in crime. ()
If it can be proven that those fund were not involved in criminal activity, the courts will unfreeze. (or at least that's how it's intended to function).
() that's up to courts, not public opinion. I'm in the public.
- totony 5y ago>it can be proven The emergency act removes that requirement, which is what is scary. Not only can you not prove it, they don't even have to hold a trial (afaict) Also that law was clearly not intended to be used against protests. Seems more aimed at organized crime.
- teunispeters 5y agoNo they have to hold a trial - after the act ends. (the precise details are way above my level of understanding). But everyone gets held on trial - including government. (I have no idea what that means as yet) As to organised crime, there's strong accusation of exactly that involved here. But I suppose it'll sort in the trials of the leaders.
