JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) estimates that the assets confiscated from the inactive Probolinggo Regent Puput Tantriana Sari reached Rp60 billion. The amount comes from the investigator's count.

"The preliminary calculation results obtained by the investigative team with an estimated value of confiscated assets reached Rp60 billion in the form of various assets of economic value," Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Ali Fikri told reporters, Thursday, July 14.

Ali said this number could still increase. This is because the investigation into the alleged money laundering crime (TPPU) which ensnared Puput and her husband, Hasan Aminuddin, is still being carried out by investigators.

The process of collecting evidence, continued Ali, including tracing the alleged ownership of assets will continue to be carried out.

"Currently, the process of collecting evidence, including tracing the alleged ownership of assets and their confiscation from the suspects, is still being carried out by the investigative team," he said.

It was previously reported that Puput Tantriana Sari and her husband, Hasan Aminuddin, were caught in the bribery case of buying and selling positions. He set a tariff of Rp. 20 million.

The KPK then developed an investigation into allegations of money laundering and gratuities. Both were later named suspects.

In the process of investigating money laundering offenses, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) continues to look for evidence of what the two have done. In fact, Puput's assets have been confiscated.
