Back in April 2018, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) named 38 former members of the North Sumatera DPRD as suspects as a result of development of investigation into the case of corruption that brought down the disgraced Governor of North Sumatera Gatot Pujo Nugroho. The KPK had previously named 12 politicians as suspects in the same case during the span of 2015 to 2016. The trials of the suspects ended in August 2019, but the KPK did not stop the investigation. Last week, nearly two years after the last announcement, the KPK announced that it had named 14 new suspects in the case, all are former members of the DPRD. With the announcement, so far the case had ensnared 64 former members of the DPRD. Unbelievable.
