JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said the inauguration of 61 public prosecutors (JPU) who had passed the selection in February. This inauguration will be held quickly so that they can immediately do their work.

"Regarding the inauguration, hopefully it can be faster. At least maybe early February we can do the inauguration and join forces," said KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri to reporters at the parliament complex, Senayan, Central Jakarta, Wednesday, January 26.

Firli said these 61 prosecutors were selected from dozens of people sent by the Attorney General's Office. They have run the selection and interview tests.

The Corruption Eradication Commission also requested the sending of the prosecutor, Firli added, because so far they lacked the manpower to carry out prosecutions.

"KPK asked the Prosecutor's Office of the Republic of Indonesia to send prosecutors and we will conduct a selection. From the selection results, initially 70 people passed, then after the interview test there were 61 people and a decision was made by the Secretary General of the KPK," said the former deputy for prosecution.

As previously reported, Firli Bahuri revealed that his agency received an additional 61 prosecutors from the Attorney General's Office. He conveyed this in front of members of Commission III of the DPR RI during a working meeting today or Wednesday, January 26.

With this addition, the KPK's prosecution work can be lighter and faster.

Apart from prosecutors, there will also be additional employees. Firli said this addition came from employees of other ministries/agencies.
