On July 30, 2025, Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto officially submitted two clemency requests to the parliament, which were approved the following day. The House of Representatives (DPR) granted abolishment of punishment (abolisi) to former Minister of Trade Thomas Trikasih Lembong and amnesty to Hasto Kristiyanto, Secretary General of the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P). The decisions were made as part of a national reconciliation effort ahead of Indonesia's Independence Day, with the Ministry of Law and Human Rights citing the primary motivation as promoting national unity and political stability. Hasto Kristiyanto, convicted of corruption, will have his punishment removed but remains legally guilty. He has decided not to appeal his conviction and was released from detention for medical treatment. Tom Lembong is expected to be released from Cipinang Detention Center on August 1, 2025. The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) confirmed that the amnesty does not hinder ongoing anti-corruption efforts, including the search for fugitive Harun Masiku. The clemency actions are presidential prerogatives under Article 14 of the 1945 Constitution. Political and legal figures have expressed various views, with some praising the president's decision as wise and courageous, while others view it as politically motivated. The Presidential Decrees for the amnesty and abolisi are expected to be issued promptly.
