Seizure from De’Clan Signature Cafe

The specific amount of S$3.13 million and US$889,965 was found in a safe at the De’Clan Signature Cafe in Cipete, South Jakarta. This operation was conducted by the National Police as part of their investigation into alleged corruption, money laundering, and bribery cases. The cafe's location in South Jakarta places it within the scope of the ongoing searches in the capital region.

These seizures are connected to a larger investigation into corruption involving high-ranking officials. The police have been conducting searches since July 8 and 9, targeting offices and homes linked to various companies and individuals. The Attorney General's Office (AGO) has stated that the resignation of Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes, Febrie Adriansyah, was to protect the integrity of the legal process during this investigation.
Other Recovered Assets

Beyond the funds recovered from the cafe, the police have seized substantial assets from other locations. This includes approximately Rp540 billion (RM140 million) in cash and foreign currencies from various sources. A significant recovery of 74kg of gold bars, US$4.77 million, and S$14.08 million was made from a house in Sentul, Bogor, which Febrie Adriansyah later acknowledged as his property. Additionally, Rp7.2 billion (RM1.9 million) in cash was found at a money changer.
