Indonesian Police Transfer 3 Corruption Cases to Attorney General's Office

The Indonesian National Police's Directorate for Corruption Crimes (Kortastipidkor) has transferred three alleged corruption cases to the Attorney General's Office (Kejagung). The cases involve coal mining, the state-owned ASABRI insurance company, and Krakatau Steel.

Director of Kortastipidkor, Inspector General Totok Suharyanto, announced the transfer, emphasizing it as a move towards synergy between law enforcement bodies. "We have agreed with the Attorney General's Office that the police's handling of the investigation into these three cases has been handed over to the Attorney General's Office for synergy purposes," Totok stated at a press conference in Jakarta on Saturday.

During its investigation, Kortastipidkor examined 15 witnesses and two experts. The police also conducted searches at several locations believed to be connected to the cases. A case review led to the identification of two suspects.

One suspect, identified as DR, is accused of money laundering potentially originating from corruption. Another suspect, FA, faces charges related to alleged corruption and/or money laundering involving public officials in the PT Asabri case and other corruption offenses.
