JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) revealed that the Integrity Assessment Survey (SPI) in Ogan Komering Ulu (OKU) Regency is in the vulnerable or red category.

This statement was conveyed by the KPK Spokesperson Team Budi Prasetyo after the anti-corruption commission held a hand arrest operation (OTT) on Saturday, March 15. From the silent activity, six people were named as suspects.

"SPI OKU Regency is still in the vulnerable or red category where in 2024 it won 63.11," Budi said in a written statement quoted on Tuesday, March 18.

Budi said that the management of human resources (HR) and the procurement of goods and services (PBJ) were two aspects whose scores were low in SPI OKU Regency.

"HR management scored 61.25 while procurement of goods and services won a score of 68.07," he explained.

In addition, the results of the SPI of OKU Regency also noted that there were still low efforts to prevent corruption. The score is only 76.99.

"Similarly, the expert component provides a score of 66.54 obtained from the assessment of the monitoring group representing the public, as well as attached observation groups," said Budi.

Previously reported, the KPK named Nopriansyah as the Head of the PUPR Office of Ogan Komering Ulu Regency (OKU) as a suspect in a bribery case related to a project at the PUPR Service. He became one of eight people who were caught in a hand arrest operation (OTT) on Saturday, March 15.

The KPK said this case began in January 2025 or during the discussion of the Regional Revenue and Expenditure Budget Draft (RAPBD) of OKU Regency for Fiscal Year 2025. There was an evil consensus so that the 2025 Fiscal Year RAPBD could be implemented immediately.
