Makassar (ANTARA) - The Head of the South Sulawesi High Prosecutor’s Office (Kajati), Didik Farkhan Alisyahdi, has ordered the Criminal Division (Pidum) and Asset Recovery teams to search for and seize the assets of convicted defendant Mira Hayati to pay a Rp1 billion fine in accordance with the Supreme Court (MA) RI cassation ruling.

“I have already instructed the Asset Recovery Division to immediately conduct ‘asset tracing’. If the Rp1 billion fine is not paid, we will seize and execute her assets,” said Kajati Didik in Makassar on Friday.

He emphasised that the search for Mira Hayati’s assets in the case of distributing and possessing dangerous cosmetics is an effort by the prosecutor’s office to collect the unpaid fine after the deadline has passed.

According to him, efforts to trace, identify, and locate the assets or property of the convicted defendant are being carried out to prevent them from being hidden or transferred to other parties.

“This is done to ensure that the convicted defendant has sufficient assets to pay the fine. The case is final, following the execution of the principal sentence (imprisonment), there is an obligation for the criminal fine that must be settled,” said the former Head of the Banten Prosecutor’s Office.

He explained that a criminal fine is one of the principal types of punishment in criminal law, consisting of an obligation for the convicted defendant to pay a sum of money to the state as a consequence of the criminal act committed.

Previously, convicted defendant Mira Hayati had stated her willingness to pay the Rp1 billion fine by signing a commitment letter (D2). However, to date, she has not shown good faith in paying the fine.

Convicted defendant Mira Hayati was previously forcibly collected on Wednesday (18/2/2026) from her personal residence on Jalan Bontoloe, Kapasa Raya Village, Tamalanrea District, Makassar City, witnessed by the local RT Chairman. She is now at Makassar Prison serving her sentence.

This uncompromising stance by the South Sulawesi Prosecutor’s Office refers to the Supreme Court RI Cassation Decision Number: 12016 K/PID.SUS/2025 dated 19 December 2025. In its verdict, the Supreme Court imposed a two-year prison sentence and a Rp1 billion fine, subsidiary to two months’ imprisonment.

The verdict concludes the long journey of the case involving the distribution of dangerous skincare products (containing mercury), deemed to violate Article 435 of Indonesia’s Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health.

At the District Court first instance, Mira Hayati was sentenced to 10 months’ imprisonment, which was increased to four years at the appeal level, until the Supreme Court finally decided on a final sentence of two years’ imprisonment and a Rp1 billion fine.
