Former Jampidsus Febrie Adriansyah Detained at KPK Detention Centre
Former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Adriansyah was detained at the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) detention facility on Friday night (24/7).
Febrie has been named a suspect in corruption and money laundering (TPPU) cases by the Attorney General’s Office (Kejagung).
Observations by CNNIndonesia.com in the field showed Febrie, transported in a Kejagung Pidsus detention vehicle, arrived at around 23.21 WIB. He did not wear a Kejagung detention vest, and his hands were not handcuffed.
Febrie was escorted by investigators from the Adhyaksa Corps, including Jember Chief Prosecutor Yadyn Palebangan, and Military Police personnel. He did not answer questions from journalists waiting in the KPK detention facility compound.
Earlier, upon leaving the Kejagung’s Round Building, Febrie said he felt criminalised after being named a suspect and detained by Adhyaksa Corps investigators over alleged corruption and money laundering.
Initially, Febrie said he had discussed with the examining prosecutors that the evidence presented still needed to be examined or confirmed.
“So in my view this is not sufficient grounds for detention. At the Round Building (Kejagung) it has never been like this, never like this,” Febrie said.
Febrie said the evidence should have been confirmed and examined thoroughly first. In addition, he said, repeated public exposures should have been conducted before naming someone a suspect and carrying out a detention.
“But this has become my superior’s decision and I am ready to face it, and I do feel this is criminalisation, thank you,” he said.
Earlier, Kejagung questioned Febrie in the afternoon. He answered the summons of Kejagung’s Team 9 for questioning in the alleged money laundering case on Friday afternoon.
Head of Kejagung’s Legal Information Centre, Anang Supriatna, said Febrie attended as a witness at 13.00 WIB. Notably, his arrival at the Adhyaksa Corps investigators’ headquarters went unnoticed by journalists covering the location in the afternoon.
“He has attended the questioning, from around 13.00,” Anang said when confirmed on Thursday evening.
Kejagung is known to have issued a new Investigation Order (Sprindik) specifically concerning the alleged money laundering committed by Febrie.
The Sprindik was issued after Team 9 received evidence in the form of 74 kg of gold and foreign currency worth hundreds of billions of rupiah from the National Police’s Corruption Crimes Task Force (Kortas Tipidkor).
“The Attorney General’s Office has studied the case, resulting in a new Investigation Order specifically for money laundering with Number Print-03/F.2/Fd.2/07/2026 dated 20 July 2026,” Anang said in a written statement on Thursday (23/7).
In addition to Febrie, Anang said Team 9 had summoned three other individuals related to this case on Wednesday (22/7) to be questioned as witnesses, namely Don Ritto, NH, and TS.
During the questioning, the office also invited the Coordination and Supervision Team from the KPK, the Prosecutorial Commission, the National Police’s Anti-Corruption Task Force, and the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) as a demonstration of transparency and synergy in handling the case.
