The Ministry of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning/National Land Agency (ATR/BPN) is getting serious about dealing with land disputes and conflicts in Indonesia, especially those caused by the land mafia. This was emphasized by the Minister of ATR/Head of BPN, Nusron Wahid after meeting with the Attorney General, Sanitiar Burhanuddin at the Attorney General's Office of the Republic of Indonesia, Jakarta on Thursday, October 31.

"We visit the very brave Attorney General, who has a very noble reputation and integrity. We coordinate, formulating strategic steps in order to eradicate the land mafia. Once again, zero tolerance for the land mafia so that there is a distribution of land that is just and reflects equity for the Indonesian people towards a prosperous Indonesia," said Minister Nusron after the meeting.

The eradication of the land mafia will be carried out by strengthening collaboration with the Police, Attorney General's Office, and local governments, as well as in the future involving the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) and the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). In this regard, Minister Nusron also revealed at the Commission II Working Meeting of the House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia (DPR RI), Wednesday, October 30.

"We cannot tolerate the land mafia. We will hold a special coordination meeting with the Attorney General's Office, the Police, and PPATK. We will initiate a process of impoverishment of the land mafia. We are not only satisfied if the land mafia is subject to a general criminal offense. If it is a crime that purely involves state officials, the offense must be a criminal act of corruption. However, if it can be balanced with money laundering offenses so that there is a deterrent effect," said Nusron Wahid.

Minister Nusron is determined to eradicate the land mafia and save the right to community land. This is so that the land mafia issue really doesn't exist in Indonesia because it involves legal certainty and playing with small people who have rights, which are seized by their rights," he concluded.

In a meeting with Attorney General Sanitiar Burhanuddin, Minister of ATR/Head of BPN Nusron Wahid accompanied by the Director General of Land Dispute and Conflict Handling, Iljas Tedjo Prijono; Region I Inspector, Arief Muliawan; and the Head of the Public Relations Bureau, Harison Mocodompis.
