BALINEWSID.COM, JAKARTA – Former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus), Febrie Adriansyah, was officially named a suspect just hours after resigning from his position on Saturday (July 11, 2026). He is facing multiple charges related to alleged corruption and money laundering.
Head of the National Police’s Corruption Eradication Corps (Kortas Tipidkor), Inspector General Totok Suharyanto, said Febrie is suspected of violating Article 12 of Indonesia’s Anti-Corruption Law as well as Articles 3 and 4 of the Money Laundering Law (TPPU), in connection with three separate corruption cases currently under investigation.
As part of the investigation, police searched 13 locations linked to the former senior prosecutor, including a money changer, Cafe de’Clan Signature in South Jakarta’s Cipete area, and a residence in Bogor, West Java.
During the raids, investigators reportedly seized hundreds of billions of rupiah in cash in various currencies and 74 kilograms of gold bullion.
Among the cases under investigation is an alleged corruption scheme involving coal procurement at state-owned electricity company PT PLN (Persero), which investigators claim caused state losses of approximately Rp5 trillion. The case has also been linked to major power outages that affected parts of Sumatra, Java, and Kalimantan.
Police have questioned a number of witnesses in the coal procurement investigation. However, according to information circulating among investigators, several individuals have allegedly failed to comply with summonses for questioning.
The name of PLN President Director Darmawan Prasodjo has also surfaced in connection with the investigation. According to information from a source within the National Police Headquarters, Darmawan was reportedly summoned twice by investigators—first in February 2026 and again after the case entered the formal investigation stage—but allegedly did not appear for questioning.
As of the publication of this report, neither PT PLN nor Darmawan Prasodjo has issued an official statement regarding the reported summonses.
Meanwhile, National Coordinator of Relawan Listrik Untuk Negeri (Re-LUN), Teuku Yudhistira, urged the National Police’s Corruption Eradication Corps to take firm action if any individual failed to comply with investigators’ summonses.
“If it is true that Darmawan Prasodjo ignored the summons, investigators have the authority to enforce compulsory attendance in accordance with legal procedures. No one is above the law,” Yudhistira said in Jakarta on Monday (July 13, 2026).
He also called on investigators to examine the relationship between suspect Febrie Adriansyah and PLN officials, including the legal assistance cooperation agreement between PT PLN and the Attorney General’s Office, to determine whether the arrangement had been misused to conceal alleged corruption.
Yudhistira expressed confidence that investigators would thoroughly pursue the alleged coal procurement corruption case without favoritism, considering the significant financial losses allegedly suffered by the state.
The information regarding the alleged summonses and non-attendance of PLN President Director Darmawan Prasodjo is based on claims from unnamed sources and has not been officially confirmed by the National Police or PT PLN. Under the principle of the presumption of innocence, all individuals mentioned in this report are entitled to due process and are presumed innocent until proven guilty by a final and binding court verdict.
