Abstract
The crime of money laundering does not stand alone because the assets placed, transferred, or diverted by way of integration were obtained from the crime, meaning that there was already another crime that preceded it (predicate crime). There are 26 (twenty-six) types of predicate crimes obtained from the proceeds of money laundering crimes as stipulated in Article 2 Paragraph (1) of Law No. 8 of 2010. Basically, these activities consist of three steps, each of which stands alone but is often done together, namely placement, layering, and integration. Moreover, the crime of money laundering is closely related to financial, economic, banking, investment, juridical issues, and even social and political issues that have national and even global impacts as found in the case with Decision Number 46/Pid.Sus/2021/Pn.
