AGO Examines Former Jampidsus Febrie Adriansyah as Suspect in ASABRI Case
The Attorney General’s Office (Kejagung) has examined former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Adriansyah in his capacity as a suspect in the corruption and money laundering (TPPU) case related to PT ASABRI. Head of the AGO Legal Information Centre, Anang Supriatna, stated that the examination took place concurrently with the handover of evidence and the detention of another suspect, Don Ritto, at the AGO’s Bundar Building on Friday.
“It is true that today there was a handover of documents, including printed and electronic evidence, as well as gold and money, both in rupiah and foreign currency. Also handed over was suspect Don Ritto and the administrative documents for the issuance of the investigation warrant and the suspect determination for Febrie Adriansyah,” Anang told reporters in Jakarta.
Anang revealed that besides receiving the physical evidence and the suspect Don Ritto, AGO investigators also immediately summoned Febrie Adriansyah for questioning. “And at the same time, the Attorney General’s Office investigators have summoned Mr Febrie Adriansyah to be examined as a suspect,” he continued.
Anang explained that based on the Investigation Warrant issued by the Police’s Corruption Eradication Corps, Febrie is being investigated as a suspect in the ASABRI case. “Based on the Investigation Warrant from the Police’s Corruption Eradication Corps investigators, it is for one case, namely related to money laundering and ASABRI,” he concluded.
The AGO has issued three new investigation warrants as a follow-up to the transfer of case files previously handled by the Police’s Corruption Eradication Corps and the Metro Jaya Regional Police’s Special Criminal Investigation Directorate. The three major case clusters now ensnaring the former Jampidsus include alleged corruption and money laundering at PT Krakatau Steel, a coal procurement case for PLN’s steam power plants that previously caused a mass blackout, and the corruption and money laundering case in the financial management of PT ASABRI.
