JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) confirms that hand arrest operations (OTT) will continue to be carried out to eradicate corruption in the country. Moreover, so far, the silent operations carried out have always been proven in court.
Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, said hundreds of OTTs were all proven in court without exception.
"If we refer to the factual data, as long as the KPK was established it had carried out 141 OTTs which were 100 percent proven in court," Ali told reporters, Tuesday, January 11.
For this reason, the KPK will continue to arrest perpetrators of corruption. After all, Ali said that his party would not be selective in taking action.

Not only that, the anti-corruption commission will focus on handling the alleged bribery in the procurement of goods and services that ensnared the inactive Bekasi Mayor Rahmat Effendi or Pepen.

"KPK will continue to focus on completing the investigation and prosecution process," said Ali.
