Why the KPK Did Not Search Nusron Wahid's Office

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has stated that it did not search the office of the Minister of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning/Head of the National Land Agency (ATR/BPN), Nusron Wahid, during searches conducted at the Ministry of ATR/BPN on Thursday, 17 September 2026.

“For now, the searches are being carried out in three offices of the Directors General (Dirjen) and related directorate rooms,” said KPK Spokesperson Budi Prasetyo at the KPK Red and White Building, Jakarta, on Thursday, 17 September 2026.

Budi noted that the three rooms involved are those of the Director General of Land and Spatial Order Control and Enforcement, Lampri; the Director General of Land and Spatial Survey, Mapping, and Management, Virgo Eresta Jaya; and the Director General of Land Rights Determination and Registration, Asnaedi.

Meanwhile, he hinted that the searches conducted by the KPK this Thursday are merely the beginning of further searches related to the alleged bribery case within the Ministry of ATR/BPN.

“We are awaiting developments based on investigative needs, as this is the first search activity since the case proceeded to the investigation stage,” he said.

Previously, the KPK conducted a sting operation (OTT) in the Jabodetabek area on 14 September 2026. This operation was linked to alleged corruption in the processing of Building Use Rights (HGB) for PT Summarecon Agung Tbk in Bogor Regency, West Java.

A day later, the KPK named eight individuals as suspects in the alleged bribery case within the Ministry of ATR/BPN. The suspects include the Director General of Land and Spatial Order Control and Enforcement at the Ministry of ATR/BPN, Lampri; the Head of the Bogor I Regency Land Office, Sontang Coin Manurung; the President Director of PT Summarecon Agung Tbk, Adrianto Pitojo Adhi; and Rizal Pahlevi, representing the private sector/intermediary for Summarecon.

Other suspects include the former Regent of Kebumen, Arif Sugiyanto; the Chairman of the Golkar Party DPP, Fahd El Fouz, also known as Fahd Arafiq; and private individuals named Erwin and Muhammad Fakhry. The latter four are alleged to be trusted associates of Minister of ATR/BPN Nusron Wahid.
