JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) confiscated assets belonging to the inactive Papua Governor Lukas Enembe in the form of a hotel in Jayapura, Papua on Wednesday, April 12. The confiscation is suspected to be related to the alleged money laundering crime (TPPU) that ensnared him.

"The KPK investigating team in the LE case has confiscated a plot of land," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Friday, April 14.

Ali said the land has an area of 1,525 square meters. "On it is built a hotel," he said.

However, the KPK did not elaborate further on the hotel. Ali only said that this asset is suspected to have a value of tens of billions of rupiah.

"The estimated value of this asset is around Rp. 40 billion," said Ali.

Previously, Lukas had been charged with alleged money laundering. This case is a development of the alleged bribery and gratuities that ensnared him.

In this case, he is suspected of accepting bribes from the Director of PT Tabi Bangun Papua, Rijatono Lakka. Meanwhile, gratification is allegedly given by other private parties in order to get projects in Papua.

In an effort to investigate the case that ensnared Lukas, about 90 witnesses were examined. They consist of various elements including digital forensics, forensic accounting experts, and health experts.

It did not stop there, the KPK had also confiscated around Rp50.7 billion in cash; gold bullion, a ring of precious stones, and four cars. This confiscation was carried out to complete evidence of fraudulent practices carried out by the regional head.

Then, investigators frozen the account in the name of Lukas and related parties, which contained money amounting to Rp81.8 billion and 31,559 Singapore dollars.
