English term or phrase: POCA seizure
Cash seizure—overview
Seizure and detention of cash
The Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (POCA 2002) creates a regime enabling the search for, seizure and forfeiture of cash in the UK. Cash may be searched for, seized and detained if the officer has reasonable grounds for suspecting that it is recoverable property or is intended by any person to use in unlawful conduct.
HM Revenue and Customs officers, police officers, immigration officers and accredited financial investigator (AFI) have extended search powers in respect of cash connected with unlawful conduct. Searches can be conducted of private premises (including vehicles on private property), people and vehicles in public places and officers are given specific powers to aid them undertake such searches. See Practice Note: Cash searches under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002.
For a summary of the conditions which must be met for searches to be conducted of premises, vehicles and person, see: Cash searches—checklist.
The cash may be seized even if the officer only has reasonable grounds for suspecting part of it to be recoverable property or intended for use in unlawful conduct, provided it is not reasonably practicable to seize only part. See Practice Note: Cash seizure and detention.
The cash may only be seized in whole or in part provided it exceeds the minimum amount (currently £1,000).

POCA would probably be similar to ‘Zakon o oduzimanju imovine proistekle iz krivičnog djela’ (abolished in July of last year)

disagree  Daryo: did you notice that ALL the explanation is only about cash? The way you translated it, it includes also anything else: cars, boats, properties, paintings ...
