Answer 3

No, foreign property or bank accounts cannot be attached under Section 88 CrPC merely because a person has been declared a Proclaimed Offender under Section 87. The attachment power is limited to property within the territorial jurisdiction of the court. For foreign assets, separate international legal processes must be invoked.

Nahi, Court sirf usi property ko attach kr sakti ha jo local ha. Section 88 Cr PC specify nai krta k property local ho ya foreign, pr foreign property/bank accounts ko confiscate krna practically impossible hota ha.

Answer 7

Generally, no—a foreign property or bank account cannot practically be attached under Section 88 CrPC when a person has been declared a proclaimed offender under Section 87 CrPC, because Pakistani criminal courts do not have direct territorial jurisdiction to enforce attachment orders outside Pakistan.
