The Bangka Belitung Islands (Babel) High Prosecutor's Office (Kejati) intervened to investigate the scarcity of 3 kg subsidized LPG gas in its area.

"We are conducting research to find nodes that cause the scarcity of subsidized LPG gas, whether because there are allegations of irregularities or being influenced by other reasons," said Head of the Babel Attorney General's Office, Asep Maryono in Sungailiat, Babel, Tuesday, August 1, confiscated by Antara.

In handling the case of the scarcity of 3 kg LPG gas in Babel, Asep said the Babel Attorney General's Office would coordinate with PT Pertamina and intelligence officials to resolve this issue.

"Even if due to this scarcity, a violation of the law will be found, we will take action in accordance with the duties and functions of the prosecutor's office," he said.

Asep emphasized that hoarding LPG gas is a violation of the law where the perpetrator can be subject to criminal sanctions.

"People who are entitled to use subsidized LPG gas should not panic too much because the government is still making efforts to resolve it as quickly as possible," he said.
