Seized property refers to various items seized to show whether the item was obtained illegally because it was paid for with criminal money.<\/p>

There are several reasons why the police or investigative agencies may seize items or vehicles. This seizure may occur for the following reasons:<\/p>

  • Decline to traffic:<\/strong>\u00a0in some cases, goods are withdrawn from circulation, meaning they are permanently out of use.<\/li>
  • Truth-telling:<\/strong>\u00a0seized property can serve as evidence in criminal cases, such as weapons, drugs, stolen property, or other items related to a crime.<\/li><\/ul>
    • Suspicion of profit from criminal offenses:<\/strong>\u00a0Sometimes attachments are made as collateral to satisfy any fines or deprivation measures in the future.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      If something is seized, you will be given a receipt. Your items will first be kept at the police station and then taken to a special storage facility. Each police unit has its own storage facility for seized items, except the National Unit.<\/p>

      The police write down in detail why they seized your belongings and who owns them in an official notice of seizure. It is important to note that the police themselves do not decide what happens to your belongings; this is decided by the District Attorney's Office<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      It is of the utmost importance to contact one of our lawyers immediately after the seizure of your property. This is important in part because of Article 117 Sv, which states that the Public Prosecutor's Office can sell seized property immediately, and property can be destroyed before the case has had a substantive hearing with the court.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      Upon seizure, you will receive a receipt. This lists everything that was seized and the date it was done.<\/p>

      Immediately after seizure, the lawyer will submit a request to the public prosecutor to return the goods. First, the lawyer will request all court documents to understand why the goods were seized. The chances of return are then high, which is essential for determining the defense strategy.\u00a0If the public prosecutor refuses, the lawyer can file a complaint, asking the court to decide on the return of the seized goods.<\/p>

      This petition is designed to ensure that you get your property back as soon as possible. In fact, it is the only way to force the prosecution to return your belongings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      In practice, it often happens that the police take away things such as money, cars and cell phones, even when it is immediately obvious that those things have nothing to do with the suspicion. That can be quite unpleasant for the person from whom the items were taken.<\/p>
