JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of Commission II of the Indonesian House of Representatives from the Gerindra Party Faction, Bahtra Banong, said that Gerindra Party General Chairperson Prabowo Subianto has often reminded his cadres, including regional heads, to be careful.
This was said by Bahtra in response to the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK)'s hand-in-hand operation (OTT) to trap Pati Regent Sudewa alias Sudewo who is a cadre of the Gerindra Party. According to him, Prabowo has asked the regional heads of Gerindra to really work for the people.
"We in the Gerindra Party continue to provide training for cadres so that each cadre continues to work for the people," said Bahtra at the Parliament Complex, Jakarta, Tuesday, January 20, quoted by Antara.
He said the alleged corruption case related to the filling of a number of village apparatus positions that befell Sudewo was a personal matter.
Although there are a number of regional heads who have stumbled upon legal cases, Bahtra claims that supervision from the Ministry of Home Affairs (Kemendagri) has also been maximized.
"We continue to ask the Ministry of Home Affairs to continue to monitor," he said.
Previously, the KPK held an OTT that ensnared Pati Regent Sudewo regarding the filling of village apparatus positions in Pati Regency, Central Java.
"Regarding the filling of the post of head of affairs, head of section, or village secretary," said KPK spokesperson Budi Prasetyo to journalists in Jakarta, Tuesday.
