  • Kuntadi has been proposed to become the Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) within the Attorney General's Office (Kejagung).
  • The proposal, dated July 13, 2026, suggests Kuntadi would replace Febrie Adriansyah, who resigned from the position.
  • Other proposed appointments include Asep Nana Mulyana as Deputy Attorney General and Leonard Eben Ezer Simanjuntak as Head of the Kejagung Education and Training Center.

Kuntadi, currently the Head of the Asset Recovery Body (BPA) at the Attorney General's Office (Kejagung), has been proposed for the position of Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus). This potential appointment comes as Jaksa Agung Sanitiar Burhanuddin seeks to fill the vacancy left by Febrie Adriansyah's resignation.

The proposal, outlined in a letter dated July 13, 2026, also includes other significant personnel changes within the Kejagung. Asep Nana Mulyana, currently the Junior Attorney General for General Crimes, is proposed to become the Deputy Attorney General. Additionally, Leonard Eben Ezer Simanjuntak is suggested for the role of Head of the Kejagung Education and Training Center.

Should Kuntadi's appointment be confirmed, the position of Head of the BPA, which he currently holds, is slated to be filled by Patris Yusrian Jaya. Patris currently serves as the Head of the DKI Jakarta High Prosecutor's Office. The proposed changes signal a significant reshuffling within the leadership of Indonesia's Attorney General's Office.

When questioned about the proposed appointments, Habiburokhman, the Chairman of Commission III of the House of Representatives (DPR RI), stated that he had not yet received official information regarding the matter. He indicated that further details would emerge as the process unfolds.

I don't know, but uh, let's just see later, okay. Okay.
