"The Task Force 53 is in the AGO, its work is within the reach of the entire region," said Ketut when confirmed, Sunday, September 25.

Task Force 53, which is tasked with cracking down on the abuse of prosecutors' authority and the prosecutor's employees, was formed by Attorney General ST Burhanuddin. The formation is based on the Decree of the Attorney General of the Republic of Indonesia Number 261 of 2020 dated December 21, 2020.

Separately, ST Burhanuddin conveyed that prosecutors and employees of the Prosecutor's Office must maintain the dignity of the Adhyaksa Corps. Those who deviate from authority to other disgraceful acts will certainly be dealt with.

Arif and wise arbitrariness is based on conscience. Zero is tolerant of violations and abuse of authority," he said.
