JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) investigative team secured a number of documents related to work projects and permit documents for tourist attractions after conducting a search of three Batu City Government offices on Wednesday, January 6.

The three offices that were ransacked by KPK investigators were the PUPR Office, the Education Office and the Tourism Office.

"Investigators found and secured a number of documents related to work projects and permit documents for tourist attractions at the tourism office of Batu City for the period 2011-2017," said Acting KPK spokesman for prosecution Ali Fikri in his statement, Thursday, January 7.

After the documents are secured, investigators will conduct an analysis before confiscating them and using them as evidence related to the investigation of the alleged receipt of gratuities at the Batu City Government for the 2011-2017 period.

"Next, the team will analyze and immediately confiscate the documents as evidence in this case," he said.
