Sony Sonjaya Urges Prosecutors to Probe 41 Names in Graft Case

Prosecutors Face Pressure to Investigate Additional Suspects in SPPG Corruption Scandal

Tempatdonasi.com – The legal landscape surrounding Indonesia’s high-profile corruption investigations has shifted dramatically following recent developments involving Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes Febrie Adriansyah. In a significant turn of events, the former official has been formally designated as a suspect in both corruption and money laundering proceedings. This designation came during a joint press conference held at the Attorney General’s Office building on Saturday, July 11, 2026, at precisely 3:30 p.m. The announcement was made alongside Rudi Margono, who was subsequently appointed as the acting Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes, and a representative from the Law Commission of the Indonesian House of Representatives.

Expanding Scope of SPPG Investigation

Meanwhile, the investigation into the alleged illicit trading of Nutrition Fulfillment Service Points continues to gain momentum. Krisna Murti, the legal representative for Sony Sonjaya, the former Deputy Head of the National Nutrition Agency, has publicly urged prosecutors to take immediate action regarding 41 individuals implicated in the case. According to Krisna, none of these 41 names have yet been questioned by the Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes, despite being identified since the earliest stages of the investigation.

“There are no additional names from Sony; those 41 individuals have still not been interrogated to this day,” Krisna told Tempo during an interview.

Sony Sonjaya initially disclosed these names when investigators first began examining the corruption allegations. The evidence gathered includes not only confessions but also conversation logs retrieved from Sony’s mobile phone, which allegedly document interactions with several of the implicated individuals. When asked about additional names mentioned by Febrie Adriansyah during a recent press conference, Krisna clarified that Sony had not provided any further names beyond the original 41.

Febrie Adriansyah’s Resignation and Suspect Status

The timing of these developments is particularly notable. During a press conference on Friday, July 10, 2026, Febrie Adriansyah had announced that his institution would continue investigating the suspected illicit trading of SPPG points. At that time, he noted that investigators were examining the involvement of the 41 names mentioned by Sony, and that this figure had since expanded to 47 individuals.

However, just hours after that announcement, the Head of the Legal Information Center of the Attorney General’s Office, Anang Supriatna, revealed that Febrie Adriansyah had officially resigned from his position. This resignation came amid a whirlwind of police investigations into a series of corruption cases allegedly involving the high-ranking prosecutor himself.

Major Evidence Seized in Nationwide Raids

The National Police’s Corruption Eradication Task Force and the Jakarta Metro Police conducted coordinated raids on 12 locations last Wednesday, uncovering substantial evidence. Investigators discovered hundreds of billions of rupiah in cash and dozens of kilograms of gold bars. These assets were found at two primary locations: Febrie’s residence in Sentul, Bogor, West Java, and Cafe de’Clan in Cipete, South Jakarta.

The rapid succession of events—from Febrie’s announcement about expanding the investigation to his own designation as a suspect—has drawn significant attention from legal experts and the public. The fact that the official who was overseeing the SPPG investigation has now become a suspect in parallel proceedings adds complexity to the ongoing legal battles. As prosecutors continue to question the individuals implicated by Sony Sonjaya, the full scope of the corruption network may soon become clearer.

Legal observers note that the investigation into Sony Sonjaya’s alleged involvement in the buying and selling of SPPG points represents one of the most significant corruption cases in recent Indonesian history. With 47 names now under scrutiny and evidence mounting from multiple sources, the Attorney General’s Office faces the challenge of ensuring thorough investigations into all implicated parties while maintaining the integrity of the judicial process.
