Pile of Rp58.1 Billion in Cash from 16 Online Gambling Cases Seized by Bareskrim

Directorate of Cyber Crime (Dittipidsiber) of the Indonesian Police’s Criminal Investigation Agency (Bareskrim) has completed 16 police reports related to money laundering crimes arising from online gambling (judol). From these cases, the total cash seized amounts to Rp 58.1 billion; this is how it was arranged. Observations by detikcom at the Bareskrim building, South Jakarta, on Thursday (5 February 2026), show the stack of cash laid out along a black-draped table. The cash was placed in clear plastic bags comprising Rp 100,000 notes. The seized funds have been handed to prosecutors for execution. Brig. Gen. Himawan Bayu Aji, director of Dittipidsiber, said the proceeds from the judol crackdown will be the responsibility of prosecutors to execute and hand over to the state because there is a court ruling. This represents the first implementation using Supreme Court Regulation (Perma) No. 1 of 2013 concerning procedures for the disposition of wealth in money laundering cases or other offences. ‘Today, we issue a release related to the execution of assets seized for the state as the implementation of Perma (No. 1 of 2013) derived from TPPU (money laundering) and online gambling offences,’ Himawan said. The exposure of judol and TPPU cases through the Perma 1 Year 2013 mechanism is the result of a development of the Analysis Result Report (LHA) from the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (PPATK) which was pursued by Dittipidsiber Bareskrim Polri with asset blocking. ‘Currently, 16 Police Reports out of 20 LHAs have been completed to court decisions or are legally binding. With the total value of assets handed to the state through the Attorney General’s Office, today amounting to Rp 58,183,165,803 from 133 accounts,’ explained Himawan. The money was directly handed over by Himawan to the Head of the Prosecution at the Central Jakarta District Attorney’s Office, Muhammad Irham Fuady, for execution. Fuady then proceeded to hand over the money to the state via the Senior Financial Analyst at the Ministry of Finance, Sunawan Agung Saksono. The event was witnessed by Brig. Gen. Trunoyudo Wisnu Andiko, the Head of Public Relations of Polri; Mustaqim Harahap, Head of the Pra Penuntutan Directorate of Jampidum at the Attorney General’s Office; and Danang Trihartono, Deputy for Analysis and Examination at PPATK. It should be noted that the crackdown on online gambling is a commitment by the Police to support the government’s Asta Cita programme under President Prabowo Subianto. This disclosure also demonstrates synergy between Polri, ministries/agencies and other parties.
