AGO Adds New Charge for Febrie, Now Investigating Money Laundering

The Attorney General’s Office (AGO) has opened a new chapter in the case against former Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Adriansyah. The Adhyaksa Corps has issued a new Investigation Order (Sprindik) to probe alleged money laundering (TPPU) related to the discovery of 74 kilograms of gold and hundreds of billions of rupiah in cash at Febrie Adriansyah’s residence in Sentul, West Java.

The TPPU investigation order is an extension of a case previously transferred by the Police’s Corruption Eradication Corps (Kortas Tipikor). With the issuance of this new order, the AGO is now handling a total of four investigation orders in this series of cases.

AGO Head of Legal Information Anang Supriatna stated that the investigation order was issued by Team 9 after studying the case and receiving the handover of evidence from the Police. The TPPU investigation order is registered under Number Print-03/F.2/Fd.2/07/2026 dated 20 July 2026.

Anang explained that members of Team 9 were selected to avoid potential resistance between investigators and the suspects. Previously, the AGO had issued three investigation orders based on case transfers from the Police, related to the ASABRI case, the Krakatau Steel case, and the procurement of coal for a power plant that caused a blackout. In the course of the investigation, Febrie Adriansyah and Don Ritto have been named as suspects in the ASABRI case.

As a follow-up to the money laundering investigation, Team 9 summoned four witnesses on Wednesday (22/7), namely Febrie Adriansyah, Don Ritto, NH, and TS. Investigators also sought testimony from a money laundering expert. However, Febrie did not comply with the summons, citing health reasons. Another witness, NH, also failed to appear without providing any notice. The investigators have rescheduled the summons for both individuals on Friday (24/7/2026).

Anang assured that the investigation is being conducted transparently. The examination on Wednesday was monitored by the Corruption Eradication Commission’s (KPK) Coordination and Supervision Team, the Prosecutorial Commission, the Police’s Kortas Tipikor, and the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) as a demonstration of transparency and synergy in handling the case. He added that coordination between Team 9, the Metro Jaya Police investigators, and the Police’s Kortas Tipikor Team is ongoing to expedite the case handling.
