JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has revealed that there are 439 cases of alleged corruption handled until December 17, 2025.

Of the total, 69 are still in the investigation stage.

"By 2025, the KPK will progressively conduct 69 investigations, 110 investigations, and 112 prosecutions," said KPK spokesperson Budi Prasetyo to reporters through his written statement, Monday, December 22.

Budi said that 118 people were named as suspects in various cases.

Next, there were 73 cases from the previous year that had been declared to have legal force or inkrah.

"Then 75 cases were executed," he said.

Meanwhile, Deputy Chairman of the KPK Fitroh Rohcahyanto said his agency was indeed strengthening its efforts to take action. "Not for the sake of numbers but a sense of justice for the community because every action opens the way for system improvement," he said at the end-of-year press conference at the KPK's Red and White building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta.

Fitroh also touched on 11 hand-catching operations (OTT) that were carried out. From this activity, he explained, there were many systematic corrupt practices that were open so that they could be handled.

"For the KPK, enforcement is not the end. The findings and lessons learned from enforcement are an important basis for encouraging improvements in systems, governance, and supervision, so that the same corrupt practices do not recur," said the former KPK Director of Prosecution.

The KPK has just hattrick or held a silent operation for three times within 1x24 hours on Wednesday, December 17 to Thursday, December 18.

The KPK is known to have carried out a hand-in-hand arrest in the Tangerang, Banten and Jakarta regions on Wednesday, December 17. In this effort, the prosecutor was arrested for allegedly extorting foreign residents.

After the process took place, the results of the silent operation were taken over by the Attorney General's Office (Kejagung). Because, at the same time, the Adhyaksa Corps claimed to have issued a preliminary investigation order (sprindik).

Next, on Thursday, December 18, the KPK also carried out OTT in Hulu Sungai Utara (HSU) South Kalimantan. From this activity, a suspect was determined, namely the Head of the North Hulu Sungai District (Kajari) Albertinus P. Napitupulu; Head of the Intelligence Section (Kasi Intel) Assistant Budianto; and Head of the Civil and State Administration Section (Kasidatun) Taruna Fariadi.

The cadets are currently in custody after fleeing and hitting the investigators. The case that ensnared the three of them was extortion.

Finally, the KPK team carried out OTT in the Bekasi Regency area. From this activity, three suspects were determined, namely the Regent of Bekasi Ade Kuswara Kunang and his father, H. M. Kunang, and a private party named Sarjan.
