Bandung City Regional Secretary Ema Sumarna said his party would continue to carry out the Lebaran 2023 homecoming service as planned. The case of a hand arrest operation involving Yana Mulyana City Wai will not have an effect.

According to Ema, what has been planned for a long time will continue, including services during homecoming and backflow.

"Although there is a case in the city of Bandung with the initials mentioned to be involved in the case, God willing, we can still carry out what is planned," said the man who was appointed as the daily executor of the Mayor of Bandung.

"We still have Asda II which will coordinate with all levels technically. God willing, there will be no problems going home," he added, as reported by Antara.

Ema said that the city government was seeking legal problems that ensnared the Mayor of Bandung, not to interfere with the implementation of services for the community.

Officials in the Bandung City Government, according to him, immediately held an emergency meeting after the Mayor of Bandung, Yana Mulyana, was arrested.

"Because whatever happens, government administration must continue to be carried out, and the priority is that public services must not be disrupted," said Ema.

Regarding legal assistance for Yana Mulyana, Ema said that the matter must first be discussed with high-ranking officials within the Bandung City Government.

"It's still in process, we are still discussing it for a meeting," said Ema.

Bandung Mayor Yana Mulyana was caught in a sting operation by the Eradication Commission (KPK) on Friday night (14/4).

The KPK said that the operation was carried out in connection with a case of alleged bribery in the procurement of CCTV and internet network provider services.
