The disclosure statement must contain all useful information on the name and address of the disclosing person, the person whose property is confiscated, the nature and exact composition of this property, as well as its location. The declaration statement shall have attachments, if need be, of certified copies of all useful documents. Article 63: Any onerous or free of charge act, by persons or by testament, carried out either directly or through an intermediary or any other indirect means, insofar as its purpose is to st aside a property from the confiscation measures that may affect it, is null and void. In the event of cancellation of an onerous contract, the price shall be returned only to the extent that it has actually been paid. Article 64: Any unsecured creditor shall claim the amount of his claim in accordance with the conditions laid down in Article 62 and provide all the proof necessary for admission to the liabilities of the confiscated property. If the creditor fails to make the claim within the prescribed time limit, he may no longer bring an action for the share of the property that has devolved to the State, unless he can justify that the impossibility of making the claim within the said time limit was due to a legitimate cause such as remoteness, absence or incapacity. If such a cause is proved, the time limit for making the claim is three years. Secured, unsecured creditors and mortgagees may be reimbursed before their claim is due. Section 2: Special confiscation Article 65: The confiscation of movable and immovable properties belonging to the convicted person is a compulsory additional penalty when such properties are product of the offense. It is an optional additional penalty in cases provided for by law when the properties have been used to commit the offence. Article 66: Properties confiscated in application of this section are acquired by the State. Their alienation is managed by the Administration in charge of the Domains in the forms prescribed for the sale of public properties. They remain encumbered up to their value by debts incurred prior to the conviction. Section 3: Sequestration Article 67: The judge may, in cases provided for by law, sequester the property of the convicted person.
