JAKARTA - The Attorney General's Office (Kejagung) of the Republic of Indonesia has not commented much on the discourse on the Asset Confiscation Bill (RUU) which will be discussed by the DPR-RI. However, it is hoped that the rules will not collide.
"If the government in general is okay, the important thing needs to be harmonized with other laws," said Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) at the AGO Ali Mukartono to reporters, Monday, February 22.
That note, said Ali, was because regarding the confiscation there were currently regulations governing it. For example, the Criminal Procedure Code and the Corruption Eradication Law.
"The important thing is there is harmony. Don't collide with each other," he said.
Ali then gave an example of one of the rules that were considered to be conflicting, such as the rule on state finances. According to him, there are definite differences in the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) law and the corruption law.
"In the BPK Law there is, in the Corruption Law it is different, in Law No. 17/2003 (on State Finance) there is. It's confused which one to use?" Ali said
"What is called state finance? That means there has never been harmonization," he continued.
For that, Ali hopes that the Asset Confiscation Bill will be more complete. So, synchronization with existing rules can run well.
"Hence, in order to complement the existing ones, if there is a deficiency it is complemented by other laws, we hope there will be harmonization," he said.
