Owner of 74 kg Gold in Febrie Adriansyah Case Remains a Mystery, AGO Says It Will Be Revealed in Court
The mystery behind the discovery of 74 kilograms of gold bars in the alleged money laundering case implicating former Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes, Febrie Adriansyah, has yet to be revealed to the public. Despite being one of the most attention-grabbing pieces of evidence in the case, the Attorney General’s Office is still keeping the identity of the gold’s owner tightly under wraps. The Adhyaksa Corps has confirmed that the facts will only be disclosed when the case proceeds to court.
Head of the AGO’s Legal Information Centre, Anang Supriatna, said all facts regarding the ownership of the gold and other evidence will be proven during the trial process. “All of that will be proven in court later,” Anang said when contacted on Tuesday, 4 August 2026.
Anang explained that investigators have actually been open about the progress of the case handling. However, there is some information that cannot be published for the time being in the interest of the investigation. “We have been very open, but there are some things that investigators cannot disclose for the sake of the smooth running of the investigation process so as not to cause difficulties,” he said.
According to him, the AGO’s Team 9 is currently still working to deepen witness statements, examine evidence, and trace the origins of the gold bars and cash previously seized by investigators from the National Police’s Corruption Eradication Corps. “Currently, investigators are deepening witness statements and evidence, including the ownership of the gold and money that has been seized by investigators from the National Police’s Kortas to strengthen the evidence and the construction of the case being handled. Team 9 investigators will conduct the investigation professionally, transparently, and in accordance with provisions and regulations,” he stated.
As is known, the 74 kilograms of gold bars were part of the evidence seized by National Police investigators when they searched 12 locations in the development of three alleged corruption cases. In addition to the gold, investigators also secured cash worth billions of rupiah from several search locations. Currently, the entire case handling has been transferred to the Attorney General’s Office and is being handled by Team 9 under the supervision of the Corruption Eradication Commission and the oversight of House of Representatives Commission III.
