The Attorney General’s Office of Indonesia has been the subject of several controversies relating to its internal practices, public perception, and alleged operational conduct. Several reports stated irregularities in tender and non-tender procurements by the AGO, such as several high-value contracts without competitive bidding to a single private company for digital systems described as capable of automated content creation, narrative assignment, and propaganda. In 2025, the office sanctioned over 150 prosecutors and administrative staff for misconduct as part of internal oversight efforts, drawing attention to longstanding complaints about ethical standards and accountability in prosecutorial conduct. ==List of attorneys general of Indonesia==

: == Buildings of the attorney general's office ==

The Attorney General's Office began at a time when the authority to prosecute and to adjudicate was unseparated. Its first office was shared with the first Supreme Court building complex in 2-4 Lapangan Banteng Timur street, nearby the Waterloosplein (now Lapangan Banteng, Jakarta). The building was previously used as the Hoggerechtshof te Batavia (an appellate court named the High Court of Batavia, now High Court of Jakarta), and currently it is occupied and managed by the Ministry of Finance, who also occupied and managed the Paleis van Daendels building next door. The Hoggerechtshof building that was designed by architect Ir. Tramp and completed in 1825 during governor general Du Bus' tenure, was initially used as the headquarters of the Governors General of the Dutch East Indies. Then on 1 May 1848, the building was used by the recently established Departement van Justitie (Department of Justice), which oversaw the court system and the administration of justice in the colony. Sometime later, the classical style building with six pillars on the front was fully used as the Hoggerechtshof, which included the prosecutor's office. Later with the promulgation of the 1961 Public Prosecution Service Act (), the attorney general's office was separated from the supreme court. In 1968 during the tenure of Attorney General Soegih Arto, the Office was moved out from the Supreme Court building to a site in 1 Sultan Hassanuddin street in Kebayoran Baru, which is its current site. On 22 August 2020, the main building of the Attorney General's office complex caught on fire. The old building was demolished and was rebuilt. It was completed in late 2022. ==References==
