Immigration Minister: Former Jampidsus Febrie Banned from Travel for 20 Days

Immigration and Corrections Minister Agus Andrianto has stated that his agency has imposed a travel ban on former Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Ardiansyah. The ban was implemented following a request from Jakarta Metropolitan Police investigators after Febrie was named a corruption suspect in a case involving alleged money laundering (TPPU). “He is currently banned from travelling for 20 days,” Agus said at the DPR, MPR, and DPD Complex on Tuesday, 14 July 2026. Referring to the provisions of Article 97 paragraph (1) of Law Number 6 of 2011 on Immigration, a travel ban or prevention order is valid for a maximum of 6 months. Similarly, the Regulation of the Minister of Law and Human Rights Number 38 of 2011 concerning Procedures for Prevention and Deterrence states that a travel ban is imposed for a maximum of 6 months and can be extended for a maximum of another 6 months. Agus explained that the 20-day travel ban duration for Febrie is only temporary. “In accordance with what was submitted by Polda Metro Jaya, we have temporarily given 20 days,” said the former Head of the National Police Criminal Investigation Agency (Bareskrim). Previously, information regarding Febrie Adriansyah performing umrah surfaced on social media, one of which was mentioned by the X account @Sentjoko. However, the Attorney General’s Office denied this information. Head of the Attorney General’s Office Public Relations, Anang Supriatna, said Febrie had been banned from travelling by immigration, so he could not go abroad. “We confirm he is in Indonesia, not abroad, and has been banned from travelling. He is also under investigator surveillance,” Anang said at the Attorney General’s Office Building on Monday, 13 July 2026. On Saturday, 11 July 2026, former Jampidsus Febrie Ardiansyah was named a corruption suspect in the alleged TPPU case. Head of the National Police Corruption Eradication Task Force (Kortastipidkor), Inspector General Totok Suharyanto, stated that the designation was made after investigators conducted a series of investigations, including the examination of witnesses and experts, and held a case conference.
