Manitoba strengthens powers to seize and sell crime proceeds
Amendments to Manitoba Criminal Property Forfeiture Act take effect December 15 allowing a new provincial unit to pursue forfeiture. A director of civil forfeiture may seek court orders to seize profits from unlawful acts or property bought with those profits, including real estate cash and vehicles. Court ordered forfeited property may be sold donated or destroyed. Members of criminal organizations are presumed to possess proceeds of crime unless proven otherwise, with fronts for crime treated similarly. Innocent third parties retain protection under the law.
