Harli Siregar Proposed as New Head of Attorney General's Training Body

Harli Siregar, a prominent figure in the Attorney General's Office (AGO) over the past two years, has been proposed for the position of Head of the Education and Training Body of the Indonesian Attorney General's Office. Siregar gained public recognition while leading the AGO's Center for Legal Information, serving as the institution's face in explaining significant corruption cases handled by the Corps Adhyaksa.

He regularly provided media updates on investigation developments, suspect designations, asset seizures, and case handling strategies. The proposal for his new role is detailed in a letter from Attorney General Sanitiar Burhanuddin to the Cabinet Secretary, dated July 13, 2026. The letter suggests Siregar, currently Inspector III in the AGO's supervisory division, as the replacement for the current Head of the Education and Training Body.

If the President approves the proposal, Siregar will assume a strategic leadership position. The same letter also proposes the current Head of the Education and Training Body, Leonard Eben Ezer Simanjuntak, to become the Junior Attorney General for General Crimes. Siregar's career has been built not only on structural positions but also on his handling and communication of major cases.

During his tenure as Head of the Center for Legal Information, Siregar was the AGO's primary spokesperson for investigations into alleged corruption in commodity trading, the PT Duta Palma Group case, the granting of export facilities for crude palm oil, alleged corruption in the 4G BTS project at the Ministry of Communication and Informatics, and various other cases handled by the Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes. He also routinely updated the public on investigations into alleged sugar import corruption involving former Trade Minister Thomas Trikasih Lembong, and bribery and gratuity cases involving former Supreme Court official Zarof Ricar.
