Attorney General's Office Surrenders Rp58.1 Billion in Judol Assets to the State, Resulting from Synergy with Bareskrim

The Indonesian Attorney General’s Office (Kejaksaan Agung) officially deposited Rp 58.1 billion derived from online gambling offences (judol) into the state treasury. This enforcement step follows a court ruling that is final and binding.

Chief Prosecutor Muttaqin Harahap of the AGO’s Jampidum (P4) stated that the asset transfer demonstrates real evidence of the successful collaboration between the investigation unit Dittipidsiber of Bareskrim Polri and the Prosecutor’s Executor. He assured that the online gambling case currently being handled has been resolved through a lawful mechanism up to the execution stage.

“What we showed today to all my colleagues is real proof that the online gambling case has been resolved through the mechanism of Supreme Court Regulation No. 1 of 2013, which has become final and binding,” Muttaqin said at a press conference at Bareskrim Polri, South Jakarta, Thursday (5/3/2026).

Muttaqin stated that the agency had received the asset from Bareskrim investigators and had immediately processed it for the state’s benefit.

“As the Prosecutor Executor in the enforcement of a final and binding decision, we today have also received around Rp 58 billion, and we have deposited it into the state treasury,” he added.

He emphasised that every rupiah of the assets seized from the acts of crime is managed transparently. The funds seized from online gambling cases and money laundering offences are recorded as Non-Tax State Revenue (PNBP).

“The Attorney General’s Office ensures that every asset surrendered by investigators, in particular from Bareskrim Polri, has been deposited into the state treasury as part of optimising non-tax state revenue (PNBP),” explained Muttaqin.

According to him, the main focus of law enforcement in financial crimes such as online gambling is not only punishing the body of the crime but also asset recovery to minimise losses to the state and the public.

Therefore, Muttaqin appreciated Bareskrim’s performance in applying Supreme Court Regulation No. 1 of 2013 on the Procedures for Handling Wealth in Money Laundering Offences or Other Offences.

“Once again, we commend the performance of our colleagues at Bareskrim, and we hope in the future it can be more optimal in asset recovery in the enforcement of law against online gambling and TPPU,” he said.

Bareskrim Hands Over Rp 58.1 Billion of Judol Case Proceeds to the State

(Dittipidsiber) Bareskrim Polri handed over Rp 58.1 billion related to a money laundering case from online gambling (judol) to be executed by the prosecutor. The money was handed over because the case had final and binding status.

The handover was implemented under Supreme Court Regulation No. 1 of 2013 on the procedures for handling wealth in money laundering offences or other offences. There were no suspects in this case, as the funds came from a nominee account.

Therefore, investigators focused on cutting the Judol syndicate’s transactions. He claimed online gambling practices have harmed the national economy.

“Carrying out the execution of court decisions is the Police’s commitment to support government’s priority programs related to asset recovery from crime, especially online gambling. We recognise that online gambling offences have harmed the national economic order,” said Brigadier General Himawan Bayu Aji, Director of Criminal Investigation, Bareskrim Polri.

Nevertheless, Himawan stated that asset execution success is evidence of strong inter-ministerial/agency synergy. This synergy ensures that the legal process surrounding online gambling offences remains a shared concern.

“We would like to extend our appreciation to PPATK, the Attorney General’s Office, the Coordinating Ministry for Political, Legal, and Security Affairs (Kemenkopolhukam), the Ministry of Finance, as well as banks and the public who provided information related to online gambling handling,” he added.

The money was handed directly by Himawan to the Head of the Pidum section at the Central Jakarta District Attorney’s Office, Muhammad Irham Fuady, to be executed. Fuady then handed it to the State Financial Analyst, Senior Expert Sunawan Agung Saksono of the Ministry of Finance, for deposit to the state.

The event was attended by the Head of Public Relations, Polri’s Humas Division Brigadier General Trunoyudo Wisnu Andiko, Muttaqin Harahap, and the Deputy in charge of Analysis and Examination at PPATK Danang Trihartono.
