Section 131 - Confiscation or Penalty Does Not Affect Other Punishments
Section 131 clarifies that any confiscation or penalty imposed under this specific Act or its related rules does not prevent additional punishments from being applied. This means that even if a person is subject to confiscation or a penalty under this Act, they can still face other legal consequences or punishments under this Act or any other applicable laws. This section ensures that penalties and confiscations are not the only repercussions an individual may face; they can still be held accountable through other legal means as outlined in the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, or any other relevant law in force.
