Adly Fairuz's Originality is Sued for Alleged Deception in the Rp3.6 Billion Akpol Acceptance

JAKARTA - A case of alleged police recruitment fraud has surfaced in the public and dragged the name of Adly Fairuz. Not to mention, the losses suffered by the victims reached IDR 3.65 billion.

This case is now rolling into the civil sphere after the defendant allegedly failed to keep a promise in the agreement to return the money.

Lawyer Farly Lumopa revealed the chronology of how his client, Abdul Hadi, could be entangled in the whirlpool of promises to pass the police. It all started from a friendship between Farly, Abdul Hadi, and an intermediary named Agung Wahyono.

According to Farly, Agung Wahyono was initially asked by Adly Fairuz to find people who were interested in joining the police with the promise of special assistance.

To convince his victims, Adly is said to have claimed to have strong relations as the grandson of the former ruler of this country.

"Agung Wahyono was ordered by Adly Fairuz to find people who wanted to join the police. Basically he said he was still a family member of the former ruler, claiming to be his grandson," said Farly Lumopa in South Jakarta, Friday, January 9.

Abdul Hadi, who was trying to get his son into the police, was finally interested. He also deposited a certain amount of money to Agung Wahyono with the supervision of Farly Lumopa as a lawyer to ensure that the process was transparent.

The problem began when Abdul Hadi's son was declared not to have passed the police selection. Farly then demanded a promise of a refund to Agung. However, Agung argued that all the money had been handed over to a figure he called "General Ahmad".

Feeling something was wrong, Farly asked for a direct meeting with the general figure at the beginning of 2024 at Cilandak Town Square (Citos). However, he was surprised when he found out who was actually behind the name.

"When I met him, I was shocked. Loh, why is General Ahmad Adly Fairuz? Adly Fairuz is not a general. There I knew Agung said his full name was Aldi Ahmad Fairuz, so he took the name Ahmad," recalled Farly.

Even though he felt deceived by the identity, Farly at that time chose not to extend the title business as long as his client's money was returned in full.

As a form of accountability, Adly Fairuz agreed to return the money of Rp. 3.65 billion. This agreement was even confirmed through a notary deed in Depok, West Java. In the agreement, Adly committed to paying installments of Rp. 500 million per month until it was paid off on September 15, 2024.

However, promises are just promises. After making the first payment of Rp500 million in May, Adly no longer continued his obligations.

"After May he paid 500 (million), in June he did not pay again until September. Therefore, on my behalf (as the power holder), I filed a civil lawsuit," said Farly.
