Febrie Adriansyah, the former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes, failed to appear for a scheduled summons on Wednesday, July 22, 2026. The summons was related to an investigation into alleged money laundering. Adriansyah cited health reasons for his absence, while another individual, NH, did not appear without providing any notification.
Anang Supriatna, Head of the Legal Information Center at the Attorney General's Office, confirmed the absences in an official statement on Thursday, July 23, 2026. A special team handling Adriansyah's case had summoned four individuals to provide testimony as witnesses. Two other witnesses, identified as DR and TS, were also called, along with an expert in money laundering crimes (TPPU).
Supriatna stated that the examination was attended by coordination and supervision teams from the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), the Attorney General's Commission Team, the National Police's Anti-Corruption Task Force, and the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK). He described this multi-agency presence as a demonstration of transparency and synergy in handling the case.
Adriansyah is currently involved in three separate cases being investigated by the Anti-Corruption Task Force and the Directorate of Special Criminal Investigation at the Jakarta Metropolitan Police. These cases involve alleged corruption and money laundering in the handling of PT Asabri, alleged corruption at PT Krakatau Steel, and corruption in coal management at a PLN-owned power plant. While Adriansyah has been named a suspect in the PT Asabri case, he remains a witness in the other two cases. The Attorney General's Office has since taken over the investigation of these three cases.
Two people did not comply with the summons, namely FA for health reasons and NH did not appear without notification.
