JAKARTA - Bareskrim Polri has named three new suspects in the case of the Adhyakasa Corps building fire. Of the three suspects, one of them is the Commitment Making Officer (PPK) of the Attorney General's Office (AGO) with the initials IS.

Meanwhile, the Director of the Directorate of General Crimes at Bareskrim Polri, Brigadier General Ferdy Sambo, said that MD and J were named because they were parties involved in the procurement of dust cleaners and ACP. These two ingredients are factors that accelerate the spread of the fire.
