Malang, Indonesia – 2025 – In a significant development for thousands of victims impacted by the ATG Robot Trading investment fraud, the Malang District Attorney’s Office has officially completed Phase 1 of the handover of seized assets to representatives of the victims.

Background: ATG and the Fraud Scheme

The ATG (Auto Trade Gold) case, one of Indonesia’s most notorious trading scams, resulted in massive financial losses for investors across the country. The scheme was orchestrated by Wahyu Kenzo, who was found guilty and sentenced for his role in operating the fraudulent robot trading platform. The total loss from the case is estimated in the hundreds of billions of rupiah.

On October 15, 2024, the Supreme Court of Indonesia issued a final verdict (Decision No. 5524.K/Pidsus/2024), mandating the seizure and redistribution of Kenzo’s assets to help compensate the victims.

Phase 1 Handover: A Step Toward Justice

Following months of legal and administrative coordination, the Malang District Attorney’s Office commenced Phase 1 of the asset handover process in June 2025. In this phase, a portion of the confiscated assets were transferred to verified representatives of the victims.

The handover was carried out in accordance with the Supreme Court ruling and represents a major milestone in the victims’ long wait for restitution. While the specific details of the assets in Phase 1 have not been publicly disclosed, officials confirmed that more phases will follow.

An update shared by law firms involved in the case emphasized the symbolic and material importance of this first step:

“Phase 1 of the asset handover from the ATG Robot Trading case has been officially delivered to victims’ representatives by the Malang District Attorney’s Office.”
