TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Mohammad Riza Chalid has been officially placed on the wanted list (DPO), according to Nurcahyo Jungkung Madyo, Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes. "He is already on the DPO," he said on Friday, August 22, 2025.
The Head of Public Relations for the Attorney General's Office, Anang Supriatna, stated that Riza Chalid has been a wanted person since August 19, 2025. In addition to being a suspect in an alleged corruption case related to the management of crude oil and Pertamina refinery products, he has also been designated a suspect in money laundering crimes.
Among the 18 suspects in the corruption case, Riza is the only one also accused of money laundering in addition to the principal offense. He was initially declared a suspect in the Pertamina crude oil management corruption case on July 10, 2025, and was subsequently declared a money laundering suspect the following day.
The Attorney General's Office has seized several cars believed to belong to Riza, though they are registered under other names. The seized vehicles include a white BMW 528, a Toyota Rush, two Mitsubishi Pajero Sports, a Toyota Alphard, a Mini Cooper, and three Mercedes-Benz sedans. Investigators confiscated these cars from individuals affiliated with Riza, including some from a person identified as Irawan Prakoso.
Riza is the only suspect who has not been detained as he remains abroad. His last known location was in Malaysia. Tempo obtained a photo of Riza Chalid with Puro Handoko, a representative of Gemcorp Capital, at a hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The picture was taken on Friday, June 20, 2025, after Friday prayers.
To apprehend the oil tycoon, the Attorney General's Office has submitted a red notice request to the International Relations Division of the Indonesian National Police Headquarters. The request will be forwarded to Interpol headquarters in Lyon, France. If approved, Riza Chalid will officially become an international fugitive. While Indonesian immigration has revoked his passport, he is suspected of possessing a second passport from another country.
