TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Indonesian Directorate General of Immigration of the Ministry of Immigration and Correctional Affairs has barred the former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Adriansyah from leaving the country. The prohibition also applies to another corruption case suspect in the same case, Don Ritto.
The Directorate General of Immigration and Correctional Affairs, Hendarsam Marantoko, said the prevention of leaving the country is based on a letter of request from the Detective Directorate of the Jakarta Metro Police Number B/12730/VII/RES.3.3/2026/Ditreskrimsus dated July 11, 2026. "The prohibition is valid for 20 days according to the applicable regulations," Hendarsam said on Sunday, July 12, 2026.
Hendarsam admitted to just receiving a report about the request to prevent Febrie from leaving the country. According to him, Immigration is committed to supporting law enforcement processes by implementing every prevention request submitted by law enforcement authorities.
The corruption case involving Febrie is currently being handled by the Attorney General's Office. The police, who previously named him a suspect, referred the investigation into alleged corruption in PT Asabri, PT Krakatau Steel, as well as corruption in coal supply that caused blackouts or power outages in Sumatra.
In addition to Febrie, a lawyer named Don Ritto has also been designated as a suspect. The police detained Don Ritto in the detention house of the Jakarta Metro Police.
The Acting Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes, Rudi Margono, stated that they would soon question Febrie Adriansyah after the case is transferred to the attorney general's office. "It's about to begin, yes," said Rudi Margono after a press conference announcing Febrie Adriansyah as a suspect at the Attorney General's Office building in Jakarta on Saturday, July 11, 2026.
Rudi said they are still waiting for the transfer of evidence and the results of previous police investigations. In today's press conference, the Head of the Indonesian National Police's Corruption Eradication Corps, Inspector General Totok Suharyanto, announced that the case involving the former Deputy Attorney General would be passed to the attorney general's office.
As part of the search, the police seized tens of kilograms of gold bullion and cash amounting to around Rp540 billion in both rupiah and foreign currencies. The largest seizure occurred at a house in Sentul, Bogor, where investigators seized 74 kilograms of gold bullion. They also found cash in the amount of US$4,767,300 and SGD14,083,800. The value of the two foreign currencies is estimated to reach around Rp476 billion.
Previously, investigators seized SGD3,130,000 and US$889,965 when searching a safe at Cafe de'Clan Signature, Cipete, South Jakarta. The police also seized money worth Rp7.2 billion in 16 types of foreign currencies from Koin Money Changer.
