Hotman Paris: Febrie Adriansyah Not Detained After 10-Hour Questioning

Lawyer Hotman Paris Hutapea has stated that his client, former Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Adriansyah, was not detained after undergoing examination at the Attorney General’s Office (Kejagung) on Friday (17/7/2026). Febrie Adriansyah was questioned for approximately 10 hours by investigators regarding his status as a suspect in a case of alleged corruption and money laundering (TPPU). The examination took place from 9:00 AM until the evening. “Today he underwent the examination report (BAP) from nine o’clock until just now. There is no detention today,” Hotman Paris said during a press conference at the Jampidsus Building of the Attorney General’s Office in Jakarta. Hotman explained that investigators posed 18 questions to Febrie Adriansyah. The questioning focused on alleged corruption and money laundering in the legal handling of the PT Asabri case for the 2020-2024 period. The suspect status of Febrie Adriansyah was initially determined by the National Police before the case was transferred to the Attorney General’s Office as part of a law enforcement synergy. “The 18 questions have been answered well. Today was limited to the PT Asabri case,” Hotman added. Several specific points investigated included Febrie’s relationship with property entrepreneur Tan Kian, as well as ownership of a house located in Sentul, Bogor Regency, West Java. Another member of Febrie Adriansyah’s legal team, Massagus Farizi, revealed that they have submitted a request for their client not to be detained. This request is based on several subjective and objective reasons, including the fact that the case is one of three major cases transferred from the National Police to the Attorney General’s Office. The Attorney General’s Office has issued three Investigation Orders (Sprindik) related to this transfer.
