Abstract:
|
The purpose of this study is to examine the strategies taken by the Indonesian Attorney General's Office of Assets Recovery Center (PPA) in managing confiscated and seized goods. This is a normative and empirical study with data obtained through interviews and research literature and qualitatively analyzed using descriptive and prescriptive methods. The Asset Recovery Center (PPA) was established in the Attorney Office because it acts as a Public Prosecutor, an Investigator of Certain Crimes based on the Law, a State Attorney, and as the executor of a judge's decision with permanent legal force. The establishment is aimed at enforcing in-person (actor-oriented) and in-rem (asset-oriented) laws.
There are five asset recovery activities, namely specifically tracking, securing, maintaining, confiscating, and returning assets. From the establishment of PPA until the end of April 2016, it has generated a total PNBP of IDR 3,578,961,141,085.09 from 30% of asset recovery activities. The results showed that the PPA's obstacles are still at the echelon II level, with its huge authority leading to the potential for irregularities. Therefore, there is a need for an Integrated Asset Recovery System between fields in the Attorney General Office, institutions, and relations with international institutions and the need for additional human resources to strengthen PPA. In the future, it is advisable to upgrade the PPA from the echelon II level to I in the Assets Recovery Agency.
