In July 2018, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) conducted a Sting Operation inside the Sukamiskin Penitentiary, the facility used to detain almost all high-profile graft-convicts. The KPK managed to arrest six individuals and named four suspects in the case, including the main convict in the Bakamla graft case Fahmi Darmawansyah and the Chief of the Sukamiskin Penitentiary Wahid Husein. The operation brought the spotlight onto the Ministry of Law and Human Rights. But even after the trial began, we have not heard of any intense examination on the Ministry. The latest hearing held on January 30, 2019, listened to the accounts of Tubagus Chaeri Wardana (Wawan, the brother of the former governor of Banten Ratu Atut Chosiyah).
