AGO replaces special crimes investigation chief
Before being able to formally take up the position, senior prosecutor Rinaldi Umar was replaced by Saiful Bahri Siregar as the new investigation director under the assistant attorney general for special crimes (jampidsus).
The Attorney General's Office (AGO) has replaced the chief of special crimes investigation, with Saiful Bahri Siregar taking over the position from Rinaldi Umar. According to prosecutors, Umar was appointed to the role of investigation director under AGO's assistant attorney general for special crimes (Jampidsus) before his tenure began.
Umar, who previously served as deputy head of the Banten High Prosecutor’s Office, was originally scheduled to start on July 22. He was meant to replace Syarief Sulaeman Nahdi, who had held the position since November 2025. Prior to Umar, the investigation division was headed by Febrie Adriansyah, who is currently under investigation for money laundering related to a past graft case involving state-owned insurer PT Asabri.
Umar's replacement came as part of a wider internal reshuffle by AGO, which saw 34 senior prosecutors and officials sworn in for their new roles on Tuesday. Attorney General ST Burhanuddin announced the appointments, stating that they were made after thorough reviews and objective assessments.
