The Attorney General's Office has formed a special team to handle the alleged corruption and money laundering case involving former Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes.
"We will form a special investigative team. We will study the circumstances of the case, based on the existing investigation report and the available evidence, in relation to the alleged crime," said Anang Supriatna, Head of the Attorney General's Office's Legal Information Center at the AGO's Main Building.
The team was formed after the National Police transferred the handling of corruption and money laundering cases to the Prosecutor's Office.
Anang explained that the special team would be formed by Acting Head of Special Crimes Agency Rudi Margono and would consist of specific individuals to minimize conflicts of interest with the FA.
Despite the transfer, he ensured that the Attorney General's Office would continue to coordinate well with National Police investigators to ensure independence and professionalism.
In addition, the Attorney General's Office will also involve the Corruption Eradication Commission to supervise the handling of the case.
"And also, yesterday, our colleagues from Commission III of the Indonesian House of Representatives will also monitor the implementation of the investigation process in this case," he added.
He emphasized that the Attorney General's Office continues to adhere to the principle of caution and upholds the principle of presumption of innocence in handling cases.
"We will continue to uphold the principle of caution and the presumption of innocence until a final or binding decision is made. That's the principle," he said.
the Indonesian National Police announced that handling of the case had been transferred to the Attorney General's Office.
The transfer was carried out based on an agreement between the National Police and the Attorney General's Office as a form of synergy in law enforcement.
The police have named FA and DR as suspects in the alleged corruption and money laundering case.
