KPK Conducts Raid at BNPB, Detains Several People

Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia — Indonesia’s Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) conducted a sting operation at the National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB) on Tuesday (13 October 2026). Several people were detained by the investigators during the operation.

KPK chairman Setyo Budiyanto confirmed the detentions, saying those caught in the operation were undergoing intensive questioning.

“Several people have been detained and are being asked to provide information,” Setyo Budiyanto said, as quoted by Detikcom.

Setyo declined to disclose the identities or positions of those detained in the operation. He also did not provide details of the case or alleged corruption being investigated by the anti-graft agency.

Under Indonesia’s Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP), those detained are currently classified as persons under examination. The KPK has 1 × 24 hours to determine their legal status, including whether to name them as suspects.
