The Attorney General's Office detained former Special Crimes Deputy Attorney General Febrie Adriansyah on Friday 24 July 2026 in an alleged money laundering case.
Febrie was placed in the KPK Merah Putih Branch Detention House for 20 days. He did not wear the pink tahanan vest or handcuffs when taken to the facility.
Commission III DPR members from the Gerindra faction Bimantoro Wiyono and the NasDem faction Rudianto Lallo stressed the need for equality before the law. They asked the Attorney General's Office to explain the different treatment to avoid perceptions of special treatment.
Former KPK spokesman Febri Diansyah, who became Febrie's legal counsel since Thursday 23 July 2026, said his client was cooperative. He hoped the predicate crime underlying the alleged TPPU would be clarified.
Deputy Attorney General for Supervision Rudi Margono said detention at the KPK facility was for security reasons and inter-agency synergy. The legal process continues to uphold the presumption of innocence.
