reconfiscated
Taken back twice
Reconfiscated means confiscated again—seized by authority a second time after having been returned or released.
Property might be reconfiscated if legal conditions are violated: The government reconfiscated the assets after discovering the fraud.
The prefix re- emphasizes repetition of an already forcible act.
