Former Jampidsus Febrie Adriansyah Claims Criminalisation, Considers Pretrial Motion

Former Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Adriansyah has claimed he is a victim of criminalisation after being named a suspect and detained in an alleged money laundering (TPPU) case. His legal counsel, Febri Diansyah, stated that the team is still assessing the situation and has not yet decided whether to file a pretrial motion. He explained that the discussion is necessary as he has only recently received the power of attorney to represent the former high-ranking official. ‘Our team is discussing the matter first and examining the substance and the strategy going forward,’ Febri told reporters. He emphasised that for now, the focus is on following the ongoing investigation process. Febri noted that his client was cooperative during questioning on Friday, 24 July 2026, answering dozens of questions from investigators. The former KPK spokesman confirmed that Adriansyah had expressed his objections to the investigating prosecutors, arguing that the evidence used to designate him as a suspect still required further examination and confirmation and was therefore insufficient to justify his detention. Following the questioning, Adriansyah was transferred to the KPK detention centre.
