Attorney General Sanitiar Burhanuddin has affirmed that authority over the case of the former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes, Febrie Adriansyah, remains with Team 9.

Team 9 comprises nine prosecutors appointed to handle the Febrie case. The team is led by the Deputy Attorney General for Supervision (Jamwas), Rudi Margono.

Burhanuddin made the statement whilst inaugurating a number of senior officials of the Attorney General’s Office at the Attorney General’s Office building on Friday (24/7). Among the officials inaugurated were Deputy Attorney General Asep Nana Mulyana, Deputy Attorney General for General Crimes (Jampidum) Leonard Eben Ezer Simanjuntak, and Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Kuntadi.

“Regarding specifically the handling of cases involving suspected corruption offences from the Indonesian National Police investigation, with suspects DR and FA, whose investigation has now been transferred to the Prosecutor’s Office, I affirm that the handling of these cases remains under the authority of Team 9, led by Rudi Margono as Deputy Attorney General for Supervision,” said Burhanuddin.

Earlier, the Attorney General’s Office issued three new investigation warrants (Sprindik) relating to alleged corruption and money laundering (TPPU) implicating the former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes, Febrie Adriansyah.

Head of the Attorney General’s Office Legal Information Centre, Anang Supriatna, said the issuance of the three new Sprindiks was carried out to follow up on the transfer of the cases from the police.

The three Sprindiks concern corruption and money laundering offences involving PT Krakatau Steel; the procurement of coal for PLN power plants, which resulted in the blackout; and the ASABRI case.

In this case, investigators have named two suspects: Don Ritto, a private individual, and the former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes, Febrie Adriansyah.

Based on his role, Don Ritto is suspected of committing money laundering offences stemming from corruption. Meanwhile, Febrie is suspected of involvement in alleged corruption and/or money laundering in the process of legal handling of state officials in the PT Asabri case and other suspected corruption cases.

The Attorney General’s Office has also formed a special team of nine senior prosecutors, the majority of whom previously served at the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). These prosecutors are said not to have shown any resistance to, or rejection of, the corruption case ensnaring Febrie.

Most recently, the Attorney General’s Office issued a new Sprindik to investigate suspected money laundering linked to the discovery of 74 kilograms of gold and Rp543 billion in cash at Febrie’s residence. The Sprindik was issued by Team 9 after receiving the 74kg of gold and cash as evidence from the police’s Corruption Crime Corps (Kortas Tipidkor).

“The Attorney General’s Office has studied the case, resulting in the issuance of a new Investigation Warrant specifically for money laundering with Number Print-03/F.2/Fd.2/07/2026 dated 20 July 2026,” said Anang Supriatna, Head of the Legal Information Centre, in a written statement on Thursday (23/7).
