Urgency of Asset Seizure (Non-Conviction Based) in Corruption Crimes Achieving Legal Certainty
Abstract
Corruption crimes as extraordinary crimes. Law No. 31 of 1999 on the Eradication of Corruption Crimes, as amended by Law No. 20 of 2001 on Amendments to Law No. 31 of 1999, in Articles 17 and 18, states that the confiscation of movable property, whether tangible or intangible, or immovable property used for or obtained from corruption crimes, including property belonging to the convicted person as well as property replacing such items, is mandated. Payment of replacement money equal to the value of the embezzled assets. The government has proposed a Civil Forfeiture Bill that is in rem. This is a legal action against the assets themselves, not against individuals (in personam) as in criminal cases. Legal policy through the creation of new laws is expected to support national growth and development in the future. The formulation of the Asset Forfeiture Bill, which allows for the return of criminal assets without a court decision in criminal cases, provides an opportunity for the state to seize any assets suspected of being proceeds of crimes and other assets likely to be used or already used as instrumentalities for committing crimes.
