### sec.167 When Supreme Court may make third party order
The Supreme Court, on an application under section 165 , may make a third party order.
The Supreme Court may make a third party order if it is satisfied—
the applicant, apart from the forfeiture, would have an interest in the property; and
the applicant was not, in any way, involved in the commission of the relevant serious criminal offence; and
the applicant acquired the interest—
in good faith and for sufficient consideration; and
if the applicant acquired the interest at the time of or after the commission of the relevant serious criminal offence—without knowing, and in circumstances not likely to arouse a reasonable suspicion, that the property was tainted property; and
the applicant’s interest in the property was not under the prescribed respondent’s effective control before it was forfeited.
Also, the Supreme Court may make a third party order if it is satisfied—
the applicant, apart from the forfeiture, would have an interest in the property; and
the property was not used in, or in connection with, any illegal activity and was not derived by anyone from any illegal activity; and
the applicant’s interest in the property was lawfully acquired.
