ED needs special court permission to arrest PMLA accused who responds to court summons: Supreme Court

In essence, ED officers cannot use their special powers to arrest an accused under Section 19 of the PMLA once they have moved a complaint against the accused who was not arrested during the course of investigation.

Section 19 states that ED officers can arrest an accused if they have a “reason to believe” that the person is guilty of an offence punishable under the Act.
