Tracing: When Money Gets Lost?

In order to be able to follow or rather trace, there must be a property or an asset.

CyprusCriminal Law

The process of tracing is the ways in which a person who is entitled to property can continue to assert a claim to the property even if it is now in the hands of someone else, or even if it has been mixed with other property. "Tracing is neither a claim nor a remedy, but a process"1.

In order to be able to follow or rather trace, there must be a property or an asset. It can be an intangible property, yet in order to be able to bring a claim for it, firstly the property must be identified, as unlawfully taken away from him and secondly, the property has been used to acquire some other new identifiable property. Lastly, the change of substitutes from one property to another is not broken.
