JAKARTA - In a joint working meeting with Commission I of the DPR RI on Tuesday, November 5, the Minister of Communication and Digital Affairs, Meutya Hafid, said there was still a possibility that other names would be dragged into online gambling syndicates in the Komdigi environment.

Previously, the Minister of Trade had decided to deactivate 11 Kemkomdigi employees who had been detained by the police for alleged violations of online gambling laws.

"We have also disabled 11 names that have been verified. But then they are not closed, the possibility of deactivation will be increased," said Meutya.

Nevertheless, he stressed that no figures hold strategic positions on the list of suspects who have been detained by law enforcement officers

"As far as I know, I don't. However, those who know exactly are also in the police. But as far as I know, there is no echelon 1 or echelon 2," he said.

Meutya also ensured that the development of investigations related to online gambling would continue. Therefore, he invites all Ministries/Institutions that are willing to make integrity pacts for all employees in their environment, just like what Komdigi has done.

Meanwhile, since October 20, 2024 until today, the Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs (Komdigi) has blocked as much as 227,811 content related to online gambling, or around 14,238 content per day.

Accumulatively since 2016 until today, the government has blocked more than 7.9 million online gambling content, from websites to social media.
