JAKARTA, June 17 (Reuters) - Indonesia's Attorney General's Office said on Tuesday it had seized 11.8 trillion rupiah ($725 million) from food company Wilmar Group WLIL.SI that it said was related to corruption in obtaining palm-oil export permits.

Wilmar did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

In April, after the Attorney General's Office arrested an employee of Wilmar Group in relation to the case, the
company said it was assisting
 with investigations.
