AG asks Febrie case not to disrupt case handling at Jampidsus
Jakarta (ANTARA) - Attorney General ST Burhanuddin has asked that the corruption and money laundering case involving former Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Adriansyah not disrupt the continuity of case handling at Jampidsus.
He made the remarks in his address to the new Jampidsus, Kuntadi, at a swearing-in ceremony for new principal officials of the Attorney General’s Office at its main building in Jakarta on Friday.
To restore the spirit of the ‘Round Building’ staff, or investigators at Jampidsus, in carrying out their duties, Burhanuddin asked Kuntadi to carry out consolidation immediately.
“Raise their morale again,” he said.
In addition, he asked Kuntadi to coordinate across divisions and agencies to ensure that any obstacle in case handling can be resolved quickly, precisely and measurably.
Furthermore, the leader of the Adhyaksa Corps also asked that all corruption cases currently being handled by the Attorney General’s Office proceed independently, objectively, professionally, transparently, and without being influenced by any interests.
“Never be afraid of facing pressure, intervention or intimidation from any party as long as the actions taken comply with laws and regulations and social norms,” he said.
He also asked the Jampidsus ranks to pay special attention to cases affecting the livelihood of the people and those with a major impact on state finances and the economy.
“Ensure that every case is handled thoroughly, without selective enforcement, and supported by sufficient evidence, after optimal asset tracing and recovery,” he said.
On Friday, Attorney General ST Burhanuddin swore in several principal officials of the Attorney General’s Office, namely Asep Nana Mulyana as Deputy Attorney General, Leonardo Eben Ezer Simanjuntak as Junior Attorney General for General Crimes (Jampidum), Kuntadi as Jampidsus, Harli Siregar as Head of the Education and Training Agency of the Indonesian Attorney General’s Office, Patris Yusrian Jaya as Head of the Asset Recovery Agency, and Hermon Dekristo as Expert Staff to the Attorney General for Politics, Security and Law Enforcement.
