Jampidsus: Sentul House is a Private House, Money-Gold Has an Owner Who Can Be Held Accountable

JAKARTA - The Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Adriansyah spoke out about the findings of cash and gold bars at a house in Sentul, Bogor, which were searched by the National Police and the Metro Jaya Police regarding the alleged corruption case.

In a press conference at the Jampidsus Building in Jakarta, Friday, Febrie admitted that the house was his personal residence.

"Regarding the Sentul house, it is indeed a private house of Jampidsus which has been around for a long time. You can see how the ownership process has been from the beginning," said Febrie as reported by ANTARA, Friday, July 10.

Regarding the cash and gold bars found by the police investigators in the house, he said the items belonged to someone. However, Febrie did not reveal the identity of the owner of the items.

"That (money and gold, ed.) has owners, there are activities, there are people who also receive activities, that can also be asked. Then there are also several building activities that can be checked. We are all confident that it can be properly accounted for, but of course not through forums like this, through a forum event that is already in accordance with legal procedures," he said.

It is known that the joint team of the National Police and the Metro Jaya Police searched a house in the Sentul area, Bogor Regency, West Java, Thursday (9/7).

Head of the National Police's Criminal Investigation Unit, Inspector General Pol. Totok Suharyanto, said investigators seized gold bars, foreign currencies, and cash worth around Rp. 476 billion from the house.

"We found a locked safe that after being opened contained seven suitcases, namely 74 kilograms of gold bars, 4,767,300 US dollars, 14,083,800 Singapore dollars, and cash Rp100 million," said Totok.

In addition to gold and money, investigators also seized a number of documents, mobile phones, and several family photos allegedly related to the owner of the house and the owner of the goods stored in the safe.

The search was part of a joint investigation related to three cases, namely the alleged corruption in coal management which triggered the power outage, the alleged corruption of PT Asabri and PT Jiwasraya for the period 2020-2025, and the alleged money laundering in the settlement of PT CBS's debt to PT KNI.
