Yes. Court can grant any order against a missing person or his property. Even if he makes any Power of Attorney in somebody's name, that Power of Attorney's acts will be the acts for and on behalf of the original person. Court has power to grant attachment of property at the hands of Power of Attorney. To escape from attachment of property, the only way is to make part payment of maintenance arrears and give undertaking to the Court that thereinafter, tha maintenance amount will be paid regularly.
