North Sumatra Kajati Joins Special Investigation Team for Ex-Jampidsus Case

The Attorney General's Office has formed a special investigation team to handle cases involving the former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus), Febrie Adriansyah, who is under investigation for alleged corruption and money laundering. The Head of the North Sumatra High Prosecutor's Office, Muhibuddin, has been appointed as a new member of this team. Rizaldi, Head of the Legal Information Section of the North Sumatra High Prosecutor's Office, stated that Muhibuddin is trusted to carry out the mandate given by the Attorney General's Office professionally. He emphasized that every prosecutor tasked with handling a case is obliged to work objectively, professionally, and in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. According to Rizaldi, Muhibuddin's ten years of experience as an investigator for the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is an important asset in carrying out his duties as a member of the special investigation team. Anang Supriatna, Head of the Legal Information Center of the Attorney General's Office, said the special investigation team consists of nine senior prosecutors, most of whom are former KPK investigators. Besides Muhibuddin, the team members include Agus Salim (Inspector of Finance II at Jamwas), Chatarina Muliana Girsang (Head of the Center for Investigation and Asset Recovery Management), Riyono (Inspector of Finance I at Jamwas), Agus Sahat S.T. Lumban Gaol (Secretary of the Deputy Attorney General for General Criminal Cases), Irene Putri (Director of Legal Considerations at Jamdatun), Rinaldi Umar (Deputy Head of the Banten High Prosecutor's Office), Zet Tadung Allo (Director of Prosecution at Jampidmil), and Hari Wibowo (Director A at Jampidum Kejagung). Anang described the team members as "stars," highlighting that most are former KPK investigators, and the rest are also seasoned prosecutors. He explained that all team members were selected from outside the environment of the Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes to minimize potential conflicts of interest and maintain the independence of case handling. However, the team will continue to coordinate with investigators from the National Police's Corruption Eradication Task Force, who previously handled the case, to complete the investigation process. The Attorney General's Office has issued a new investigation order (Sprindik) after receiving the transfer of the case handling from the National Police's Corruption Eradication Task Force. Febrie Adriansyah was previously named a suspect in three cases: alleged corruption related to PT Asabri, alleged corruption of coal for steam power plants, and PT Krakatau Steel. The handling of these cases was subsequently transferred from the National Police's Corruption Eradication Task Force to the Attorney General's Office.
