It has been over four years since the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) revealed a grand criminal scheme, which was later dubbed the Budget Mafia case. The case started with a simple arrest of Amin Santono, a former Democratic Party politician. It has now brought down dozens of parties, including too many regional leaders. Earlier this year, KPK made a long overdue announcement and named two new suspects, namely the former Regent of Tabanan, Ni Putu Eka Wiryastuti (PDIP), and Rifa Surya. Eka listened to the prosecutors demands towards the end of last week, just five months after being named suspect. While Rifa was finally detained the day after. To subscribe please click here
