"It is necessary for the land owner to take preventive measures, for example studying the document made before giving power to an attorney and not easily handing over certificates to others," said Agus in an official statement in Jakarta, Monday (22/11).
Agus said that they needed to check if there was an administrative defect because it had not gone through the procedure.

He said if the land transaction process was carried out by people without authority, there was a legal defect.
"We can cancel the transaction if there's a legal or juridical defect. However, to be able to return it to its original state, the BPN will examine whether there's really a defect in its administration. This is what the police are currently proving," said Agus.

Agus assessed the role of the Land Deed Making Official (PPAT) was very necessary in order to ensure that the parties did the transaction correctly.
"The PPAT must ensure that the parties carrying out the transaction are rightful and authorized parties," said Agus.
Agus suggested that parties with rights to the certificate should accompany the PPAT in the process. (mcr18/mcr20/jpnn)
