Puti Priyana, Tanumihardja Jopie Gunawan

Abstract


It is time for the state to prioritize asset recovery for state losses resulting from criminal acts of corruption. Asset recovery must be an integral part of the series of actions taken against criminal acts of corruption. However, currently the arrangements for recovering criminal assets in Indonesia are not yet synergistic and overlapping. The asset recovery process is carried out by several agencies, giving rise to sectoral egos and lengthy coordination. This results in the recovery of criminal assets in Indonesia as an effort to recover losses from criminal acts being not optimal. This research aims to recommend strategies for recovering criminal assets in Indonesia to produce efficient asset recovery. The research method used is normative juridical using a statutory approach, comparative analysis, concept analysis and case analysis. The research results found that the suboptimal asset recovery in Indonesia was caused by disharmony in the asset recovery arrangements themselves. Indonesia can reflect on the criminal asset recovery mechanisms in the United States, United Kingdom and Italy in harmonizing asset recovery arrangements. This research also found that harmonization of asset recovery arrangements in Indonesia should be accommodated through the  through the amendment of KUHAP. Through the harmonization of these arrangements, The Attorney General's Office of Indonesia as law enforcement agency that has the authority to carry out investigations, prosecutions, execution court decisions that have permanent legal force appointed as the coordinator of asset recovery for criminal acts so that the recovery of assets, especially those resulting from criminal acts of corruption, can be well synergized and state losses recovery to be optimal.
