JAKARTA - The Attorney General's Office (Kejagung) said that the Village Head (Kades) of Kohod, Arsin, has not submitted the Letter C book. Although, the data has been requested for the purposes of investigating the sea fence case in Tangerang Regency.

The Letter C book is proof of land rights before the issuance of the certificate.

"It has not been (submitted)," said the Head of the AGO's Legal Information Center, Harli Siregar to reporters quoted on Thursday, February 6.

However, Harli could not comment much when asked further about the possibility of summoning Arsin in the investigation process. It was only stated that the AGO will continue to monitor the development of the sea fence case.

"We will continue to monitor it, but we cannot convey the monitoring. We will see later, it is in the nature of pulbaket," he said

On the other hand, Harli also emphasized that the AGO has not moved too far regarding the sea fence case. This is because the Ministry of ATR/BPN is more prioritized in investigating the problem first as the authority holder.

If criminal elements are found, then the handling will be delegated to law enforcement officers including the Attorney General's Office.

"If, indeed in the development there are indications of criminal acts, then it can be handed over to law enforcement officers according to their authority. So, so that it is not just taken for granted," said Harli.

The Attorney General's Office is known to be monitoring alleged corruption in the issuance of building use rights certificates (SHGB) and ownership rights certificates (SHM) for sea fences in Tangerang Regency.
