JAKARTA - Investigators from the DKI Jakarta High Prosecutor's Office (Kejati) have detained three suspects in the alleged corruption of the DKI Jakarta Forestry Service related to land acquisition in Cipayung, East Jakarta.

Head of the Legal Information Section of the DKI Jakarta Prosecutor's Office, Ashari Syam, said the three suspects were the former Head of Technical Implementation Unit of HH Land, Notary LD, and the private party MTT.

"The three suspects will be detained at the Salemba State Detention Center at the Attorney General's Office for the next 20 days," Ashari said as quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, July 20.

Ashari said the detention of HH was based on the Detention Order of the Head of the DKI Jakarta High Prosecutor's Office Number: Print-1876/M.1/Fd.1/07/2022 dated July 20, 2022, Suspect LD (Notary) according to the Detention Order of the Head of the DKI Jakarta High Prosecutor's Office Number: Print-1877/M.1/Fd.1/07/2022 dated 20 July 2022, as well as the suspect MTT through the Detention Order of the Head of the DKI Jakarta High Prosecutor's Office Number: Print-1878/M.1/Fd.1/07/2022 dated July 20, 2022.

Ashari explained that investigators from the Special Criminal Section of the Special Prosecutor's Office detained three suspects based on objective conditions, namely the threat of imprisonment for more than five years.

Then, the subjective requirement is that the suspects are worried about running away, eliminating evidence, and repeating their actions again as stipulated in Article 21 of the Criminal Procedure Code.

In addition, Ashari stated that the Special Specialist Investigator of the DKI High Prosecutor's Office had determined another private party with the initials JF based on the Suspect Determination Letter Number: TAP-70/M.1/Fd.1/07/2022 dated June 19, 2022.

Ashari revealed the role of JF in cooperating with LD to acquire land in Setu Village, Cipayung District.

"That JF and LD set the price for eight owners of nine plots of land in Setu Village, Cipayung District, East Jakarta," said Ashari.

Ashari said land owners only received compensation for land acquisition of IDR 1,600,000 per square meter, while the DKI Jakarta Provincial Forestry Service paid an average of IDR 2.7 million per square meter to land owners or a total of IDR 46,499,550,000.

"Meanwhile, the total money received by the land owners was only IDR 28,729,340,317, so the money from the land acquisition enjoyed by the suspects and the parties was IDR 17,770,209,683," said Ashari.

To that end, the Special Prosecutor's Office investigators arrested the suspect JF with Article 2 paragraph (1), Article 3, Article 5 paragraph (1), Article 13 in conjunction with Article 18 paragraph (1) letter b of the Law on the Eradication of Corruption Crimes in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) 1 of the Criminal Code.
