Portrait of Fachri Albar's First Appearance After Being Arrested by the Police, Declared Positive for Drug Use

Today, Fachri Albar appeared for the first time in front of the media after being arrested by the police for alleged drug use. Wearing a gray hoodie, Fachri covered his face with the hood and a mask. Throughout the press conference held at the Metro Jaya Police Headquarters, he only looked down and did not speak, Wednesday, (4/23).

The police have conducted a urine test on the 43-year-old actor. The urine test was conducted after the arrest to confirm whether he had just used drugs. The examination process took place at the West Jakarta Metro Police.

"The urine test was declared positive for the consumption of several types of narcotics," revealed AKP Avrilendy Akmam Ajie Sulistyo, Deputy Head of the Narcotics Unit of the West Jakarta Metro Police, when met on Wednesday (4/23/2025).

Although the urine test results have shown positive, the police have not disclosed in detail the evidence found during the arrest of Fachri. Complete information will be revealed at the press conference.

"The type and amount of evidence will be communicated in full tomorrow morning during the press conference," said AKP Avrilendy.

The police stated that they are still investigating this case further, including the motive and Fachri's role in the alleged drug abuse. "We are still looking into that," continued AKP Avrilendy when asked about the reason Fachri got involved in a similar case again.

As is known, Fachri was previously arrested in 2018 with evidence of meth, dumolid, and marijuana. He then underwent rehabilitation at RSKO Cibubur for seven months.

Once again stumbling into a similar case has made the public question the rehabilitation process that Fachri has undergone and how he became involved in drug entanglements again.

Although confronted by journalists, Fachri did not say a word. He only bowed his head and covered his face tightly from the media camera's glare.
