JAKARTA - The Attorney General's Office has brought 43 public prosecutors (JPU) to the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) to strengthen the performance of prosecuting perpetrators of corruption. The AGO hopes that they can strengthen the law enforcement process.

"Today we presented the presence of 43 personnel to strengthen the prosecution", said Head of the Attorney General's Office of Personnel Bureau, Hermon Dekristo, told reporters at Merah Putih KPK Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Monday, April 11.

He said dozens of these prosecutors were brought to the KPK to meet the needs in stages. Hermon ensured that they had often prosecuted the perpetrators of corruption and had gone through a rigorous selection process.

Furthermore, Hermon hopes that in the future the synergy between the two institutions can work well so that law enforcement can be carried out optimally.

In addition, these dozens of prosecutors are also expected to maintain their integrity and professionalism. So, they can work optimally to eradicate corruption.

"We convey that we must maintain integrity and professionalism, then assist the law enforcement process, making law enforcement beneficial for the community", said Hermon.

Then, they were also reminded to not only focus on imposing corporate sanctions but also on recovering state losses. This is because this step is the focus of both the KPK and the Attorney General's Office

"So it's not only the direction of how to make someone a patient but also useful for returning state losses", he concluded.
