Febri Diansyah Appointed as Febrie Adriansyah's Legal Counsel in Money Laundering Case
Former Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus), Febrie Adriansyah, has officially appointed Febri Diansyah as his new legal counsel. The appointment follows the decision of his previous lawyer, Hotman Paris Hutapea, to withdraw due to health reasons. Febri Diansyah, also known as a former spokesperson for the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), confirmed that he began assisting Febrie during an examination at the Attorney General’s Office (Kejagung) main building in Jakarta on Friday evening (24/7). He stated that the power of attorney was signed the previous day. “I have just been appointed as legal counsel. So this is the first examination process I have accompanied,” Febri told the media. During the initial examination as a suspect in the alleged money laundering case (TPPU), Febrie Adriansyah reportedly underwent intensive questioning for approximately 10 hours by the Kejagung’s Team 9. Febri Diansyah revealed that his client was asked around 20 to 30 questions by investigators. The questions were preliminary in nature, covering identity, employment history, and other general information. Febri stressed that his client was cooperative and committed to following all applicable legal processes, including undergoing detention. “Mr FA has undergone it cooperatively, attended, and answered all questions. We hope all parties can oversee this process so that it proceeds correctly according to the law,” he added. The naming of the suspect is a follow-up to a new Investigation Order (Sprindik) numbered Print-03/F.2/Fd.2/07/2026, issued on 20 July 2026. The Head of the Attorney General’s Legal Information Centre, Anang Supriatna, explained that the investigation was based on the transfer of case files and significant evidence from the National Police. The synergy between the National Police and the Attorney General’s Office in transferring this case provides a strong basis for Team 9 to further investigate Febrie Adriansyah’s involvement in the money laundering case.
