This study examined how a lawful administrative instrument was allegedly converted into a mechanism of bureaucratic extortion in the corruption case announced by the Corruption Eradication Commission in the Sukoharjo Regency Government. Normative legal research was combined with a document-based case study covering anti-corruption law, government administration law, internal control rules, regional regulations, the 2024 regent decree on tax-collection incentives, and recent scholarship. The analysis found that the alleged scheme did not require an unlawful decree. A formal decree first created measurable employee entitlements, while informal hierarchical commands allegedly re-extracted part of those entitlements and connected them with recurring deposits from regional agencies. This pattern is conceptualized as administrative-instrument capture. Criminal attribution under Articles 12(e), 12(f), and 12B must be integrated with abuse-of-authority analysis and proof of commands, coercion, fund flows, concealment, and personal benefit. Prevention requires entitlement transparency, non-cash traceability, independent confirmation, protected reporting, and risk-based audit.
