Lawyer Says Cash, 74 Kg of Gold Do Not Belong to Febrie Adriansyah

Lawyer Says Cash 74 Kg of Gold – Jakarta, July 17, 2026 – Hotman Paris Hutapea, the legal representative of Febrie Adriansyah, former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes at the Attorney General’s Office (AGO), stated that his client was unaware of the 74 kg of gold, US$4.76 million, S$14.08 million, and approximately Rp100 million (equivalent to around US$6,100) found in a home located at Parahyangan Golf 2, Sentul, Bogor Regency.

Febrie Denies Knowledge of Seized Assets

Febrie has no knowledge of the gold and money. The household assistant is also no longer paid by Febrie. The house has been used by Don Ritto,

Hotman said after accompanying Febrie during questioning at the AGO. The assets were uncovered during a police search of the residence tied to Febrie, who resigned from his position following corruption and money laundering allegations.

Febrie Admits Ownership of the House

Previously, Febrie acknowledged that the house searched by the Corruption Eradication Task Force of the Indonesian National Police (Kortastipidkor Polri) and the Special Criminal Investigation Directorate of the Jakarta Metropolitan Police (Polda Metro Jaya) belonged to him. He explained that the items found had owners, activities, and people involved in those activities, which could be investigated further. Construction efforts at the site were also under scrutiny.

Don Ritto’s Lawyer Denies Link to Febrie

In 2024, Mr. Idon [Don Ritto] requested permission to build the functional safe to store valuable items because there would be many foundation activities there,

Handika Honggowongso, Don Ritto’s lawyer, added that the property, though registered under Febrie’s name, had been managed by Don Ritto since 2023 for the operational needs of a foundation. Handika emphasized that the funds were handed over for the foundation’s purposes, though the foundation’s name remains undisclosed.

Lawyer Questions Corruption Allegations

Handika also pointed out that maintenance records from 2023 showed Don Ritto, not Febrie, had been responsible for the property’s upkeep. He challenged the corruption charges against his client and Febrie, arguing that the discovery of the assets does not definitively link them to any wrongdoing.

The police have not yet revealed additional details about the ownership of the seized assets or their connection to the ongoing investigation. The assets were found hidden in a nearly two-meter-high safe behind wooden wall panels during a search on July 8, 2026.
