Former Junior Attorney General Detained, Claims Criminalization

Former Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes Febrie Adriansyah has been detained by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) for 20 days, following his designation as a suspect in a money laundering case. Adriansyah, who was taken to the KPK detention center, expressed his belief that he is being "criminalized."

Adriansyah stated that the evidence presented by the investigators is insufficient for detention and needs further confirmation. He argued that such measures should only be taken after multiple confirmations and case exposures. "In my opinion, this is not enough to warrant detention. In the Bundar Building (Jampidsus), it was never like this," he said, emphasizing his feeling of being targeted.

Despite his reservations, Adriansyah stated he respects the leadership's decision and is prepared to face the consequences. He was seen leaving the Attorney General's Office building late Friday night, not in handcuffs. He had previously missed a summons due to health reasons but attended a second examination as a suspect on Friday. The new investigation warrant was issued on July 20, 2026.
