JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has named a number of people as suspects in the alleged bribery in the allocation of the East Java provincial financial aid budget for the 2014-2018 period for Tulungagung Regency.

"The summons of various parties as witnesses is one of the efforts to collect evidence carried out by the investigative team and is currently underway," said Ali.

"KPK hopes for community support, if they have various information related to this case, they can immediately convey it to the KPK investigation team so that we will immediately explore the information," he concluded.
