Palace: Jampidsus Febrie Adriansyah's Resignation Does Not Require Presidential Decree
Minister of State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi stated that the resignation of Febrie Adriansyah from his position as Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) at the Attorney General’s Office does not require a Presidential Decree (Keppres). According to Prasetyo, the resignation is a personal decision by the official concerned, so it does not need to be formalised through a Keppres. ‘Regarding the question about the Keppres for the resignation of Mr Febri Adriansyah from the post of Jampidsus, a resignation does not use a Keppres because it is a personal matter from the individual who declared his withdrawal from the capacity of the office he held. So, it does not use a Keppres,’ he said on Monday, 13 July 2026. He explained that a Keppres is only required to appoint a new Jampidsus official. This process must begin with a proposal from the Attorney General before being determined by the President. ‘The mechanism is that the position is appointed and determined by the President through a Keppres based on a proposal from the Attorney General, which as of today we have not yet received,’ he stated. Previously, the Head of the Legal Information Centre at the Attorney General’s Office, Anang Supriatna, confirmed that Attorney General ST Burhanuddin had received Febrie’s resignation letter on Saturday, 11 July 2026. Anang said Febrie’s decision was taken as a form of commitment to maintaining the integrity, objectivity, and neutrality of law enforcement amidst an ongoing legal process being conducted by the National Police that has implicated his name. Despite Febrie’s resignation, Anang assured that the performance of the Jampidsus at the Attorney General’s Office continues to run and does not disrupt operations at the Bundar Building.
