KPK Suspects Land Offices Funnel Money to Individuals at BPN East Java

The landowners filed a lawsuit with the Bandung Administrative Court regarding the issuance of nine HGBs for Summarecon, which were issued by the Head of the ATR/BPN Regional Office in West Java and the Head of the Bogor Land Office, with the Regional Office Head in West Java and Bogor Land Office as defendants.

The Bogor Land Office then invited the heirs for mediation. The heirs sought to block the HGBs for Summarecon. Meanwhile, the heirs withdrew their lawsuit in the Bandung Administrative Court," Taufik said.

Subsequently, communication transpired between Yaser Alfarisi from Summarecon and Erwin, the ministerial confidant.

Yaser reported to Erwin that the Head of the Bogor Land Office, I Sontang Coin Manurung, refused to lift the block and process the HGB unless directed by his superiors.

Yaser and Riza Palevi, as intermediaries for Summarecon, requested Erwin to communicate with Sontang to lift the block and process the conversion of the HGB.

In early August 2026, Yaser and Rizal received information that they needed to pay money to lift the block and issue the land certificate.

"Sontang Coin, through Erwin, requested a fee coded as 'two,' which allegedly amounts to Rp2 billion.

However, Summarecon could only agree to a payment of Rp1.5 billion," Taufik stated.

Taufik highlighted that Summarecon suspected that other parties also expected a broker fee from this process.

Ultimately, Adrianto, through Yaser and Erwin, provided the Rp1.5 billion to Erwin.

"Subsequently, ERW (Erwin) handed over part of this money, totaling Rp200 million, to Coin at a café in South Jakarta, as a fee to lift the block and process the HGB for Summarecon," Taufik added.
