The leadership of the Indonesian House of Representatives’ Commission III has proposed the formation of an independent team to investigate three corruption cases implicating former Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus), Febrie Adriansyah. The objective is to bring complete clarity to the matter.

‘This is the time for a clean-up in the law enforcement process across all lines, and I also requested earlier at the prosecutor’s office to have an independent team that is not affiliated with the alleged suspects,’ said Deputy Chairman of Commission III, Syahroni, during a special meeting at the parliamentary complex on Saturday (11/7/2026).

He insisted that this independent team must have no affiliation with the suspects. He also expressed hope that this moment would serve as an opportunity to cleanse the law enforcement apparatus. ‘So it must be a truly independent team with no affiliations whatsoever, because this is the moment for a clean-up in the law enforcement process,’ he stated.

It is known that Commission III has established a working committee (panja) related to the corruption case involving former Jampidsus Febrie Adriansyah. The House has called for solidarity among the National Police, the Attorney General’s Office (Kejagung), and the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI).

Febrie Adriansyah Named a Suspect

As previously reported, the Police’s Corruption Eradication Corps (Kortas Tipikor) has named Febrie Adriansyah and Don Ritto (DR) as suspects in an alleged corruption case. The case has now been transferred to the Attorney General’s Office.

Regarding suspect DR, Kortas Tipikor has charged him under Article 4 and/or Article 5 in conjunction with Article 10 of Law Number 8 of 2010, or Article 10 of Law 8 of 2010, or Article 607 paragraph 1 letter b and letter c of the new Criminal Code (KUHP).

‘Furthermore, we have also named Mr. FA as a suspect in the alleged criminal act of corruption and/or money laundering in the legal handling process by a civil servant or state official in the PT ASABRI case and/or other corruption crimes as referred to in Article 12 letter e, Article 12 letter b of the corruption crime law, and Article 3, 4 of the money laundering law, or the charge under Article 607 paragraph 1 letter a and letter b of the KUHP,’ he explained.

Suspect DR has been detained since 10 July 2026 at the Polda Metro Jaya Detention Centre. The case has now been transferred to the Attorney General’s Office.
