The Attorney General’s Asset Recovery Agency (BPA) has handed over a confiscated asset from a corruption case to the Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus). The transfer aims to support the institution’s operations.

The asset consists of land and a building, confiscated from the convicted individual Arie Lestario Kusumadewa. It is located in the South Jakarta area and covers 788 square metres.

The Head of BPA at the Attorney General’s Office, Kuntadi, stated that the asset has undergone a rigorous verification and physical inspection process. He assured that its condition is good, complete, and ready for use.

“With the signing of the handover minutes today, all rights, obligations, and responsibilities for managing and maintaining the asset officially transfer to Jampidsus,” said Kuntadi in his statement on Tuesday (14/4/2026).

The asset, he continued, is planned to be used as a mess for members of the Special Task Force on Handling and Resolving Corruption Cases (Satgassus P3TPK) and staff to improve performance in resolving corruption cases at the investigation, prosecution, and execution stages.

Kuntadi noted that this asset handover embodies law enforcement oriented towards asset recovery. One aspect is ensuring that every asset resulting from corruption can be recovered, secured, and utilised for the state’s interests.

“Additionally, this handover reflects Indonesia’s commitment to implementing the UNCAC (United Nations Convention Against Corruption) through the BPA, which plays a strategic role in tracing, securing, managing, and supporting the return of assets from criminal acts as part of strengthening the central authority’s role in asset recovery,” he added.

On the other hand, the Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes at the Attorney General’s Office, Febrie Adriansyah, appreciated the BPA for carrying out the handling, securing, and handover of this asset effectively. Thus, he said, the asset can change status to become legitimate state property and be used optimally for institutional interests.

“I hope that the asset handed over today can be managed in an orderly, professional, and responsible manner so that it truly adds value to the execution of duties by personnel of the Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes,” Febrie concluded.
