JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) revealed that there were 2,414 reports of alleged corruption from the public that were not followed up. One of the reasons is because the initial evidence from the reporter is incomplete.

"Initial data is needed," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Thursday, December 29.

In addition to initial data, said Ali, the reporter must be able to be contacted. He conveyed this because a number of reporters suspected corruption disappeared when their statements were needed.

In fact, the security of the reporter is actually guaranteed. Even if it is exposed in the media, usually because they themselves open it to the public.

"So this is what the KPK needs (the reporter can be contacted, ed)," he said.

"I also answered several parties who said, 'That's the task of the KPK, for example searching for data'. That's right, the KPK is looking for data and information but initial data is needed," continued Ali.

Previously, the KPK claimed to have received 4,623 reports of alleged riots from the public throughout 2022. Reports were received via email, live or demonstration, to the KPK Whistle Blowing System system system.

The highest number of reports came from DKI Jakarta with 585 complaints. Next, West Java with 429 complaints; North Sumatra with 379 complaints; East Java with 357 complaints; and Central Java with 237 complaints.

Of these, 4,055 reports have been verified. In detail, 10 reports were followed up internally because they were related to the duties and functions of the anti-corruption commission.

Furthermore, 1,631 reports were followed up with a review being carried out. Meanwhile, 2,414 reports of alleged corruption cannot be followed up.
