The lawsuit was filed regarding the determination of the status of the suspect carried out by the National Police Tipidkor Court and the Attorney General's Office regarding alleged money laundering (TPPU) crimes.

The authority of the officials who signed the policy is questioned. "According to the team of lawyers, these aspects are important to be tested in order to ensure legal certainty and the protection of the rights of every citizen in the law enforcement process. Because the detention action is carried out based on the letter of determination of the suspect whose validity will be requested to be tested in court, then the detention should also be legally invalid," he said.
