Indonesia: Three Corruption Cases Handed Over to Attorney General's Office

Indonesian authorities have transferred three significant corruption cases from the National Police's Corruption Eradication Corps and the Jakarta Metro Police to the Attorney General's Office (AGO). The handover includes suspects, electronic evidence, and non-electronic evidence, marking a new phase in the investigation of alleged financial misconduct.

The three cases under scrutiny are: alleged corruption and money laundering within PT Asuransi Sosial Angkatan Bersenjata Republik Indonesia (PT Asabri) between 2020 and 2024; the settlement of debts involving a subsidiary of PT Krakatau Steel from 2023 to 2025; and a deviation in the procurement of coal supply for power plants operated by PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) between 2018 and 2026.

While two suspects, former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes Febrie Adriansyah and lawyer Don Ritto, have been named in the PT Asabri case, investigations into the PT Krakatau Steel subsidiary debt settlement and the PLN coal supply procurement are still in the preliminary stages with no suspects yet identified. The evidence transferred to the AGO is substantial, including Rp6.059 billion in cash, approximately 74 kilograms of gold bars, US$6.3 million in cash, and Sin$16 million.

A special team of senior prosecutors at the AGO will now oversee these cases, following the issuance of new investigation orders. This development comes amid ongoing efforts to combat corruption within Indonesia's state-owned enterprises and public procurement processes.

Today, the process continues with the handover of suspects, electronic evidence, and non-electronic evidence to the Attorney General's Office.
