Ex-Prosecutor Febrie Adriansyah Named Corruption Suspect; Gold, Cash Seized

Febrie Adriansyah, the former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) at the Attorney General's Office (AGO), has been officially named a suspect in a corruption case by the National Police. The investigation also implicates a private individual identified by the initials DR.

Inspector General Totok Suharyanto, head of the National Police's Corruption Eradication Task Force, confirmed the suspect designation during a press conference. He stated that a case hearing had been conducted, resulting in the naming of DR and FA (identified as Febrie Adriansyah) as suspects. The House of Representatives Law Commission Chairperson Habiburokhman corroborated that FA refers to Adriansyah.

While the National Police have designated Adriansyah as a suspect, the investigation into three alleged graft cases involving him has been transferred to the Attorney General's Office. These cases are connected to corruption at the state insurer PT Asabri, the steel manufacturer PT Krakatau Steel, and a scandal involving coal supply that led to widespread power outages in Sumatra. Totok maintained that this transfer was executed to ensure synergy between the agencies.

Despite being named a suspect, Febrie Adriansyah has not been detained. However, DR has been held at the Jakarta Metro Police detention facility since the previous day. The investigation has involved questioning 15 witnesses and two experts, along with searches at various locations.

Authorities conducted a raid on Adriansyah's residence in Sentul, Bogor Regency, uncovering a safe hidden behind a wooden wall. From this safe, investigators confiscated a significant amount of assets, including 74 kilograms of gold and approximately Rp476 billion in cash. Further searches were conducted at multiple other locations, including businesses and residences linked to the investigation.
