East Java, VIVA – The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has sealed several work rooms in the building of the Public Works and Spatial Planning Department (PUPR) of Tulungagung Regency, East Java, following a sting operation (OTT) against Tulungagung Regent Gatut Sunu Wibowo on Friday night, 10 April 2026.
A 37-second video recording the atmosphere of the sealed PUPR department rooms, which have been padlocked and affixed with red seals reading “under KPK supervision”, circulated via an upload by @Tulungagung Eksis, spotted on Instagram social media on Saturday, 11 April 2026.
“Yes, some inside have been sealed,” said one of the guards at the Tulungagung PUPR department building.
In the short video that subsequently went viral, there are four rooms sealed by the KPK.
The four rooms are the Water Resources Division room, the Road Infrastructure Division room, the Road Infrastructure Administrative Staff room, and the PUPR Department Head’s room.
The red seals also bear writing in black marker: “prohibited from damaging this seal without permission from KPK investigators”.
In addition to the four rooms in the PUPR department building, the KPK is reported to have also sealed rooms in the Tulungagung Regent’s official residence located in the Pendopo Kongas Arum Kusumaningrum complex.
Access to the official residence is currently tightly closed from the gate with local Satpol PP guards.
