The Attorney General's Office (AGO) confiscated IDR 372 billion in cash related to the money laundering case (TPPU) of the PT Asset Pacific corporate suspect under the auspices of PT Duta Palma Group.
The hundreds of billions of money was found in two buildings and stored in several suitcases and cabinet filling cabinets.
"The estimate or estimate of the rupiah is IDR 372 billion from the first and second searches," said the Director of Investigation of the Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) at the AGO, Abdul Qohar, quoted Thursday, October 3.
Part of the money from Rp372 billion was confiscated from the Palma Tower Building on Jalan HR Rasuna Said, South Jakarta, on October 1. Investigators who searched the building found cash worth Rp40 billion and 2 million Singapore dollars.
When found, the money was stored and arranged neatly in nine suitcases.
"When totaled, converted, all the first searches amounted to around Rp. 63.7 billion," he said.
Then, other money was confiscated by investigators from the PT Asset Pacific office located at the Palma Tower Building, 22nd Floor, 23, and 24, Jalan TB Simatupang, South Jakarta.
There, the investigative team found around Rp. 149 billion in cash. Not only that, money was found from other countries' currencies.
Starting from 12.5 million Singapore dollars, 2 million Yen, and 700 United States dollars. If converted, the value is Rp304.5 billion
Previously, the AGO also confiscated Rp450 billion in money from PT Asset Pacific in connection with a similar case.
The confiscation of hundreds of billions of money is the result of the development of a case involving Surya Darmadi and King Thamsir Rahman which has permanent legal force.
Meanwhile, the investigation into the TPPU case was a criminal act of origin (TPA) in a corruption case in oil palm plantation business activities.
In the TPPU case, apart from PT Asset Pacific, the AGO has named six corporate suspects, namely, PT Palma Satu; PT Banyu Bening Utama; PT Panca Agro Lestari; PT Kencana Amal Tani; and PT Darmex Plantations.
