DPR's Oversight Team to Monitor Search Processes in Febrie Adriansyah Corruption Case
The House of Representatives’ Commission III has established a special oversight working committee to supervise the legal enforcement of three corruption cases implicating former Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes, Febrie Adriansyah. Commission III Chairman Habiburokhman stated that the oversight team would be directly involved in field operations. “We will participate in monitoring the search processes,” he said during a special meeting at the parliamentary complex in Jakarta on Saturday, July 11, 2026. He added that the committee would also take part in examining locations and evidence related to the handling of the corruption cases. “We will ensure that all our activities are transparent, so the public can follow them,” said the Gerindra Party politician. Habiburokhman explained that the direct involvement of the legal commission’s oversight team in investigating the alleged criminal acts of corruption was crucial. According to him, direct legislative oversight could close loopholes for fraud. “So there is no slander. Don’t let any money be swapped. God forbid, a gold bar could be replaced with a chocolate bar,” said the Chairman of the Corruption Case Oversight Committee. In addition to direct supervision, Habiburokhman urged law enforcement officials not to relent in investigating the cases involving Febrie Adriansyah. He also cautioned all security and law enforcement institutions to remain solid and synergistic. He stated that the corruption cases currently under investigation were not representative of the policies of state institutions or agencies. The matter, he said, was carried out by individual persons within those institutions. “Therefore, there must be absolutely no confrontation or sectoral ego conflicts between institutions,” he said. Previously, the police officially handed over three cases implicating former Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes Febrie Adriansyah to the Attorney General’s Office. The three corruption cases include the PT Asabri case, the PT Krakatau Steel case, and a coal supply corruption case that caused power outages in Sumatra, which was previously investigated by the Police’s Corruption Eradication Corps together with the Metro Jaya Regional Police. In this case, the police have named two suspects: Febrie Adriansyah and a private party, Don Ritto. Both the evidence and the suspects will soon be handed over to the prosecutor’s office. Don Ritto has been detained at the Metro Jaya Police detention centre, while Febrie has not yet been detained. “He has been named a suspect by the Head of the Corruption Eradication Corps, but has not yet been detained,” said Acting Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes Rudi Margono at the Attorney General’s Office building on Saturday, July 11, 2026.
