JAKARTA, Indonesia: A senior Indonesian prosecutor resigned on Saturday after police carried out several raids this week as part of a corruption investigation. The raids included a search of his home, during which officers seized more than US$20 million in various currencies and 74 kilograms of gold bars.

Febrie Adriansyah stepped down from his role as head prosecutor for special crimes at the Attorney General's Office. A statement from the office said he resigned to maintain neutrality during the ongoing police investigation.

Police teams from the national force and Jakarta police raided 12 locations and questioned 15 witnesses during the week. Jakarta police spokesperson Budi Hermanto said officers seized gold bars and cash worth over $20 million in currencies such as Indonesian rupiah, U.S. dollars, Singapore dollars and Saudi riyals.

Budi Hermanto said police had not yet explained the details of the investigation or the specific allegations against Febrie because the inquiry was still ongoing.

Police had earlier said the raids were linked to a corruption and bribery investigation involving state insurers Jiwasraya and Asabri. The probe also relates to problems in coal supply for electricity, which led to recent power cuts.

Speaking before his resignation, Febrie denied any wrongdoing and said he did not understand why he was being investigated in connection with the power outages.

After resigning, he did not respond to requests for comment.

Febrie had led major criminal investigations at the Attorney General's Office, including high-profile corruption cases involving Gojek founder Nadiem Makarim and former trade minister Thomas Lembong. He was also involved in a case related to illegal fuel imports at the state energy company Pertamina.

He was also part of President Prabowo Subianto's forestry task force, which has taken control of plantations and mines from companies accused of violating forest-use rules.

Before resigning, he was overseeing a corruption investigation into the National Nutrition Agency, which runs the government's free school meals program.
