Tangerang, internasionalpos.com.
Tangerang Mayor Sacrudin, less than a year into his administration, has been rocked by various financial issues, after media reports surfaced that his daughter controlled the MBG Project on Thursday (November 27th).
New media reports have surfaced that the Golkar leader extorted 1 billion rupiah from his cadres in Tangerang City, Banten.
Another case involving a 42.7 billion rupiah grant has emerged, this time Sachrudin has been reported to the Banten High Prosecutor’s Office.
Tangerang Mayor Sachrudin has been reported to the Banten High Prosecutor’s Office by the Chairman of the Golkar Party’s Tangerang City Regional Leadership Council (Kejati Banten). He is suspected of being “dragged” into a Rp 42.7 billion land grant case.
The land grant has been converted into residential and commercial shophouses.
The estimated value is Rp 42.7 billion. “The Audit Report (LHP) of the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) of Banten Province found that there are more than 5,000 plots of land.
Belonging to the Tangerang City Government, the land has not been certified, with an asset value of Rp 7.8 trillion,” he said in Tangerang City.
Quoted from RATASTV.CO News, Monday, November 24, 2025, Agus Sapto Utomo explained further regarding this matter.
There are six plots of donated land that have been converted into residential and commercial shophouses. “The value is around Rp 42.7 billion.
Sapto admitted to having reported alleged irregularities in the administration of the Tangerang Mayor (Sachrudin) and his staff.
“Yes, we have reported it to the Banten High Prosecutor’s Office,” he emphasized. “Donated land cannot be commercialized.”
He added that there are several other alleged cases of budget misappropriation in Tangerang City, but he is still keeping them under wraps.
There will be a next volume. “Let’s wait one by one,” said the man who is very familiar with the ins and outs of projects and budgets in Greater Tangerang.
He also urged the Banten High Prosecutor’s Office to immediately conduct a thorough investigation into the alleged irregularities in the commercialized land grant case.
“The Banten High Prosecutor’s Office must follow up according to applicable legal provisions. This is for the sake of upholding clean and transparent governance,”
Irwansyah, SH, a Tangerang City legal practitioner, responded to the controversy surrounding Tangerang Mayor Sachrudin’s power.
Don’t take advantage of opportunities. If you’re caught up in the law, the power of office can’t help.
“If it’s the people’s rights, don’t take them. If the reports are true, the Tangerang City Prosecutor’s Office should be the one to handle them,” he said.
If the report has been submitted to the Banten High Prosecutor’s Office, that would be better. This means the Tangerang City Prosecutor’s Office’s performance is poor.
NGOs, in particular, have more confidence in the High Prosecutor’s Office; the case of land grabbing by the mayor isn’t just a public issue.
“And regarding public facilities, I was once reported by the Pinang community that their land was taken and used for a sports hall using government funds. That’s also a matter of public funds,” said Irwansyah.
The Mayor of Tangerang is suspected of selling state land to fund his campaign.
