Former Jampidsus Febrie Adriansyah Requests Suspect Status and Seizures Be Declared Invalid
The legal team of former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Adriansyah has asked the South Jakarta District Court to grant all of their pretrial motion requests.
Febrie Adriansyah’s lawyer, Farizi, highlighted the invalidity of a number of legal actions against his client, including the issuance of an investigation order, the search and seizure of his house in Sentul, the suspect designation, and the travel ban.
“To accept and grant the Pretrial Motion submitted by the Petitioner in its entirety,” he said at the South Jakarta Court on Tuesday, 18 August 2026.
In his presentation, he asked the South Jakarta District Court judge to declare invalid Investigation Order Number SP.Sidik/2932/VII/RES.3.3/2026/Polda Metro Jaya dated 6 July 2026.
In addition, he also highlighted the search conducted at his client’s house in the Sentul area on 8 July 2026 until the early hours of 9 July 2026.
According to him, Search Order Number SP.Dah/3006/VII/RES.3.3./2026/Polda Metro Jaya and the seizure of goods on 9 July 2026 were invalid and had no binding legal force.
On the other hand, regarding the coercive measures, he asked the judge to cancel the designation of his client as a suspect. This request relates to Suspect Designation Letter Number S.Tap/02/VII/RES.3.3/2026/Polda Metro Jaya dated 10 July 2026.
In this pretrial hearing, the legal team also asked the judge to declare invalid the preventive measure or travel ban against Febrie from travelling outside Indonesian territory for 20 days.
Lastly, Farizi also questioned a number of investigation orders issued by the Attorney General’s Office on 11 July 2026.
He considered these letters to be derivative actions of the investigation process and suspect designation which they deemed invalid.
“To declare that all subsequent legal actions that solely rely on the invalid suspect designation and coercive measures by Respondent I a quo, whether already carried out or to be carried out by the Co-Respondent, have no binding legal force,” he said.
Still on the same occasion, Farizi requested that all goods, documents, and data obtained from the search and seizure at Febrie’s house be declared as evidence obtained unlawfully.
