Former assistant attorney general for special crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Adriansyah was reportedly in Saudi Arabia on Umrah when immigration authorities imposed a travel ban abroad. Officials confirmed a 20-day restriction requested by police. However, neither Immigration nor the Attorney General’s Office confirmed his departure, destination, or whereabouts as of Monday, July 13.

Thekabarnews.com—Former assistant attorney general for special crimes (Jampidsus) Febrie Adriansyah left Indonesia to perform Umrah. Reports say he departed shortly before immigration authorities blocked him from leaving the country. This occurred in connection with an ongoing corruption investigation.

The report was published on Monday, July 13. It came two days after Attorney General ST Burhanuddin accepted Febrie’s resignation as assistant attorney general for special crimes (Jampidsus).

But no government agency had confirmed Febrie’s reported departure to Saudi Arabia or revealed his whereabouts as of Monday.

The only official information is that immigration officials have prevented two people from leaving Indonesia. Officials identified them by their initials as FA, a civil servant, and DR, a private-sector worker.

The Jakarta Metropolitan Police’s Special Crime Investigation Directorate (Ditreskrimsus) requested the measure. Immigration Director General Hendarsam Marantoko said the measure was necessary.

According to a published account of the immigration statement, police submitted the request through Letter No. B/12730/VII/RES/.3.3/2026/DIRESKRIMSUS, dated July 11. The restrictions would remain for 20 days. Hendarsam said this.

Hendarsam told KabarPublik that Immigration remains committed to supporting law enforcement and implementing every lawful prevention request submitted by authorized agencies.

The timing has led to questions over whether Febrie had already crossed Indonesia’s border before the restriction became operational.

But there is no passenger record, immigration document, or official statement in the public domain to support the Umrah claim.

Police identified Febrie and the suspect, Don Ritto, who is from the private sector, during an investigation into alleged corruption and money laundering.

Investigators had questioned 15 witnesses and searched 12 sites in Jakarta and Bogor, the paper quoted investigators as saying.

Earlier reports linked the broader investigation to several state-owned companies. Authorities later said investigators named Febrie a suspect after reviewing the handling of the PT Asabri corruption case.

Authorities have not arrested Febrie, and the law presumes him innocent until a final court ruling proves otherwise. The Jakarta Metropolitan Police have reportedly held Don Ritto at their detention facility since July 10.

The Attorney General’s Office confirmed to AFP that Febrie had submitted his resignation in connection with the legal proceedings. But he still needs a presidential decree to formally dismiss him from office and civil service status, ANTARA News reported.

The university also said Febrie could be subject to an internal ethics process. Officials did not disclose when investigators would question him or whether he was in Indonesia.
