Indonesia’s anti-corruption task force has broadened the money-laundering (TPPU) investigation centred on former special-crime judge Febrie Adriansyah. The primary suspect list includes Adriansyah, Don Ritto, and businessman Nurman Herin, linked to alleged corruption in Pertamina Energy Trading Ltd (Petral) between 2008 and 2015. In August 2026, Adriansyah’s legal team filed a pretrial motion at the South Jakarta District Court to challenge his suspect status, his detention, and the legality of searches at his Sentul residence. ~~The defense argued that the investigation incorrectly utilized certain articles of the Money Laundering Law and that search warrants were substantively invalid.~~ On 27 August 2026, Judge Richard Edwin Basoeki rejected the pretrial motion, upholding the legality of the investigations, searches, and seizures. The court cited allegations that Adriansyah received approximately Rp 40 billion from businessman Tan Kian, linked to the ASABRI and Jiwasraya cases. Adriansyah’s counsel denied these claims, stating that records suggest funds were transferred to an individual named Ferry Hongkiriwang (Ferry Boboho) rather than Adriansyah. The Attorney General’s Office (AGO) later confirmed that Ferry Boboho returned Rp 5 billion in August 2026. Following further examinations in early September, the AGO reached P21 status, officially transferring case files and evidence to the South Jakarta District Attorney's Office on 16 September 2026. The investigation involves the seizure of 74 kilograms of gold and Rp543 billion in cash from Adriansyah’s Sentul residence. On 6 7 October 2026, Adriansyah’s trial commenced at the Jakarta Central Corruption Court. ~~He faces charges of extortion and money laundering related to the PT ASABRI and Jiwasraya cases. The extortion allegations center on claims that Ferry Boboho~~ Prosecutors allege he extorted ~~at least~~ approximately Rp 55 billion from Tan ~~Kian. During~~ Kian and laundered Rp 346.7 billion and 440,990 US dollars through assets including land, buildings, vehicles, and gold. The AGO has deployed 34 prosecutors, including members of the ~~proceedings,~~ specialized ‘Tim 9’, to handle the case. Adriansyah has filed a resistance note requesting that judges cancel the indictment, arguing it lacks clarity regarding his specific legal involvement.
