Indonesian police recovered 74kg of gold and more than US$15 million in multiple currencies from a residence in Sentul, Bogor, southeast of Jakarta, South China Morning Post reported. Authorities valued the gold and cash at about 476 billion rupiah, or US$26 million. The house is linked to Febrie Adriansyah, who until last week served as Indonesia’s deputy attorney general for special crimes.
He is now suspected of corruption, according to police. Images of the gold bars and stacks of US and Singapore dollars, including seven suitcases found in a locked safe, have appeared on Indonesian television and news websites. Police said investigations will be transferred in stages to the Attorney General’s Office.
The rupiah has fallen 10 per cent over the past year and ranks as Asia’s worst-performing currency.
