According to him, police have completely handed over Andi’s rehabilitation process to the BNN after he was detained on Sunday night by the Police’s drug crime unit (Bareskrim) before his release on Tuesday night.

The Democrat Party politician was arrested by a joint team consisting of the Indonesian National Police (Polri) and BNN at a hotel room in the Hotel Peninsula, West Jakarta, on Sunday night March 3.

Police investigators suspect Andi Arief had just consumed crystal meth prior to the raid. Police suspicion was confirmed after investigators conducted a urine test.
