Deputy Chairman of the East Java DPRD, Sahat Tua Simanjuntak, arrived at the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) building. He was taken to Jakarta after being caught in a hand arrest operation (OTT) on Wednesday, December 14.

Sahat arrived at the KPK's Red and White House, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta on Thursday, December 15. Judging by VOI journalist, the Golkar Party politician wore a black mask with his head wrapped in a yellow hat.

He was seen carrying two brown and blue bags. His presence was escorted by prison guards and Sahat was taken to the second floor of the anti-corruption agency's examination room.

Previously, the KPK ensnared Sahat and three other people including an expert staff along with a private person. It is suspected that bribery was related to grants from community groups in East Java.

"KPK has arrested alleged corruption related to grant funds to community groups," said KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri to reporters, Thursday, December 15.

From this activity, the anti-corruption commission secured money. However, he did not specify the amount because the team was still working.

"KPK also confiscated cash. We are still working and the results will certainly be conveyed during a press conference," he concluded.
