Getting to Know Rudi Margono, the New Acting Jampidsus with a Long Track Record in the Prosecutor's Office

The resignation of Febrie Adriansyah from the position of Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) has drawn public attention to the figure appointed to fill the role. Shortly after the resignation was accepted, Attorney General ST Burhanuddin immediately appointed Rudi Margono as the Acting (Plt) Jampidsus.

Rudi Margono’s name has thus come under the spotlight. Although he has long had a career in the Adhyaksa Corps and held various important positions, many members of the public still want to know who Rudi Margono is, his career path, and his track record before being entrusted to temporarily lead the special crimes division at the Attorney General’s Office.

Rudi Margono was appointed as Acting Jampidsus through the Attorney General’s Warrant Number PRINT-76/A/JA/07/2026. This step was taken to ensure that all duties, functions, and authorities within the Jampidsus continue to operate until a definitive official is appointed.

Head of the Attorney General’s Office Legal Information Centre, Anang Supriatna, stressed that the change in leadership would not affect the ongoing legal process. “All handling of special crime cases continues to proceed professionally, independently, and in accordance with statutory regulations,” he said.

Rudi Margono is a senior prosecutor who has served the institution for more than three decades. Born in Magetan, East Java, on 6 December 1969, he began his career in 1994 as a staff member at the Magetan District Prosecutor’s Office. From there, he steadily climbed the ranks until he was entrusted with various strategic positions within the Attorney General’s Office.

Throughout his career, Rudi Margono has held a number of important posts, both at the regional and central levels. Among the positions he has occupied are Assistant for Special Crimes at the DKI Jakarta High Prosecutor’s Office, Deputy Head of the East Nusa Tenggara High Prosecutor’s Office, Deputy Head of the Yogyakarta Special Region High Prosecutor’s Office, and Director within the Junior Attorney General for Civil and State Administration.
