A house on Jalan Brawijaya, South Jakarta that was targeted by the land mafia, was seen on Thursday (25/3/2021).

The fate of the victims of the land mafias in this country has not been good. Not only have they lost their assets but they are also victims who have had strokes and even lost their lives.

For most Indonesians, land is everything. The land and buildings that stand on it are sometimes the only assets that have been seriously accumulated. The value is also very large in their investment portfolio as many residents leave their land and houses to their children and grandchildren.
