During this search, the Jakarta Prosecutor's Office investigator team managed to secure documents for land acquisition in Setu Village, Cipayung District, East Jakarta, which will then be used as evidence.

"Investigators have searched and confiscated documents in the form of land acquisition in Setu Village, Cipayung District, East Jakarta, documents/notes for money sharing schemes, documents for submitting and offering land prices as well as financial transaction documents," said Ashari.

Meanwhile, the price paid by the City Parks and Forest Service (Distamhut) of DKI Jakarta to land owners is an average of IDR 2,700,000 per meter, so that the money from land acquisition enjoyed by LDS and JFR Notaries is estimated to be IDR 17,770,209,683.
