1When carrying out a sequestration pursuant to Article 300, the judicial police shall indicate the relevant reasons in the minutes and give a copy of the act to the person whose items were sequestered. The minutes are sent without delay, in any case, not later than forty-eight hours, to the prosecutor of the place where the sequestration was enforced.
2The prosecutor, within the next forty-eight hours, shall validate the sequestration by reasoned decision, if the conditions exist, or decide the return of the sequestered items. A copy of the decision is notified immediately, but not later than 72 hours, to the defendant, the prosecutor and to the person whose items were sequestered. Against such decision, an appeal may be lodged at the court, within ten days, by the defendant and his defense lawyer, by the person whose items were sequestered and by the one who has a right to their return. The appeal does not suspend the execution of the sequestration.
