In practice? Illustrative cases:
CASE
An individual owning multiple real estate properties came under scrutiny by the Financial Intelligence Processing Unit (CTIF-CFI) and was criminally prosecuted for money laundering offences related to the purchase and sale of real estate. The Public Prosecutor’s Office sought the confiscation of the proceeds of these offences for a total amount of €1.4 million.
Thanks in part to the collaboration between the legal team and a forensic audit firm, a full acquittal was obtained at first instance.
