remanded without charge


Explanation:
Not a lawyer, but this might fit your context. It does not have that 'Such' in the English, but such an arrest is illegal here, too.

neutral  Ken Cox: neither the question nor the reference posting makes any reference to criminal assets
1 hr
  -> it need not be criminal assets, but assets in general, that´s why I interpret the term as , once tracked down, it can be confiscated.

Reference: Sucharrest

Reference information:
This is a link from a Swiss site:
Nicht zulässig ist der sogenannte Sucharrest, bei dem der Gläubiger bezüglich des Arrestgegenstandes ein unbestimmtes Begehren stellt um durch das Betreibungsamt herauszufinden, ob und wo der Schuldner Vermögen hat.
Beispiele für nicht zulässige Begehren:

Es sei auf alle Bankkonti des Schuldners X in Y Arrest zu legen (es fehlt die Bezeichnung der Bank).
Es sei auf alle sich im Ferienhaus des Schuldners X befindlichen Sachen Arrest zu legen (es fehlt die Bezeichnung der Gegenstände).
Maybe this can help!

Based on this information, may be something like "unauthorized search for property" can work, or unauthorized investigation/inquiry on property/assets availability.

agree  Ellen Kraus
1 hr
  -> Thank you
neutral  Ken Cox: Perhaps a blanket seizure for exploratory purposes, but that's probably not legal terminology. Also, there may not be any common designation for this if the notion is not recognised in law in an English-speaking jurisdiction.
3 hrs
  -> I agree, that probably this notion is unknown to english speaking jurisdiction, but what do you suggest: not to translate that? I actually like your variant, IMHO it should be traslated descriptively
agree  Anne-Marie Grant (X): unauthorized investigation of assets?
18 hrs
  -> Something like that
