SEMARANG - The trial of the alleged corruption case of the Non-active Regent of Pekalongan, Fadia Arafiq, revealed the removal of power supply or "outsourcing" which was allegedly politically different from the choice during the election.

"There is an order from the regent to remove, then replace the person," he said in a trial chaired by Chief Justice Rightmen Situmorang, quoted by Antara.

According to him, the reason for the dismissal due to different political choices during the election was asked directly to the power supply that was dismissed.

"I asked directly, his confession is because it is related to political participation," he said.

According to him, the employees who were removed were then replaced by people whose information won the regent during the election.

He added that in 2025, the service he led won the PT Raja Nusantara Berjaya owned by the regent's family as a service provider.
