2.6 Confiscation of assets
Extract of the trial questionnaire
3.4 Decisions of confiscation of assets in 2006
Please note that confiscation of assets previously seized is, as a rule, ordered
by the court at moment of the offender’s conviction. Confiscation means a
penalty or a measure, ordered by a court following proceedings in relation to a
criminal offence, resulting in the final deprivation of property.
The ‘Total for persons convicted’ should refer to the number of people convicted
according to Table 3.1.1 in 2006.
If data for 2006 are not yet available, please give data for the latest available
year and indicate the year of reference in the table.
