Extradition Treaty, Hunting Fugitives Gets Easier

Deputy Attorney General for Intelligence at the Attorney General's Office Amir Yanto did not specify what steps the AGO had to take to hunt down fugitives who had fled to Singapore after the signing of the Singapore-Indonesia extradition.
However, Amir ensured that all the AGO fugitives who fled to Singapore could be caught immediately. "God willing," he said, Tuesday (25/1). The Ministry of Law and Human Rights has signed an extradition treaty between Indonesia and Singapore. There are as many as 31 types of criminal acts whose perpetrators can be extradited, including corruption, money laundering, bribery, banking, terrorism drugs to terrorism financing. The scope included in the Indonesia-Singapore extradition treaty is that both of them agree to extradite any person found to be in the territory of the requested country and sought by the requesting country for prosecution or trial and execution of punishment for extraditable criminal acts. Meanwhile, Acting (Plt) KPK Spokesperson Ali Fikri said that his institution welcomes and fully supports the extradition agreement between Indonesia and Singapore. Ali explained that the extradition agreement will not only facilitate the process of arresting and repatriating corruption suspects who have fled or are domiciled in other countries, but will also have a positive impact on efforts to optimize asset recovery.
