Former Deputy Attorney General Febrie Adriansyah Detained Amid Corruption Probe

Febrie Adriansyah, the former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes, is now in detention at the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) detention center in South Jakarta. The Attorney General's Office (AGO) detained him on Friday, July 24, 2026, following an investigation into his alleged involvement in corruption and money laundering practices connected to PT Asabri.

Adriansyah arrived at the KPK detention center late Friday night, reportedly not wearing a standard detention vest and appearing without handcuffs. When questioned by media, he offered a brief, non-committal response. The AGO has initiated a new Letter of Investigation, registered under No. Print-03/F.2/Fd.2/07/2026, specifically targeting the alleged money laundering scheme involving Adriansyah.

This investigation stems from the discovery of significant assets at Adriansyah's home in Sentul, Bogor: 74 kilograms of gold and foreign banknotes valued at hundreds of billions of rupiah. The AGO has previously issued four Letters of Investigation concerning Adriansyah, covering alleged corruption at PT Krakatau Steel, coal supply for power plants, PT Asabri, and the recent money laundering case.

Adriansyah has been officially named a suspect in the PT Asabri corruption case. Prosecutors are charging him under Article 12 letter e and Article 12B of the Corruption Law, alongside Articles 3 and 4 of the Anti-Money Laundering Law, further linked to the Criminal Code. Additionally, businessman Don Ritto has been named a suspect, facing charges related to violating anti-money laundering laws.
