Students have once again visited the West Java High Prosecutor’s Office. They are urging the new Chief Prosecutor, Sutikno, to resolve corruption cases occurring in West Java.

In their demands, students from the Indonesian Law Student Movement presented 10 points to the West Java Chief Prosecutor. These include calls to investigate stalled corruption allegations, maximize recovery of state losses, protect anti-corruption activists, and push for the investigation of alleged corruption in housing allowances for the Indramayu Regional House of Representatives (DPRD) and expose its intellectual masterminds.

The dozens of students were received directly by West Java Chief Prosecutor Sutikno. There, they conveyed their demand for transparent investigations into alleged corruption cases in West Java.

“We ask the new West Java Chief Prosecutor to show his teeth. There should be no more cases stuck in place. The mandate from the Attorney General’s Office must be executed immediately to uphold the supremacy of law in West Java,” said GMHI Chairman Rendi Wirman Salas on Friday, June 5, 2026.

Rendi also emphasized that students will continue to monitor the progress of all these demands through constitutional, academic, and peaceful social movements. If there are no concrete steps in handling corruption cases by the new West Java Chief Prosecutor, GMHI will return to the streets with a larger wave of masses.

“We urge the West Java High Prosecutor’s Office to immediately provide legal certainty regarding the alleged corruption in official housing allowances for the Indramayu DPRD in 2022. The new position of the person concerned must not become a shield to avoid ongoing legal processes,” he said.

In a separate confirmation, the Head of Legal Information at the West Java High Prosecutor’s Office, Nur Sricahyawijaya, stated that Chief Prosecutor Sutikno appreciated the dialogue with the students. Regarding the alleged corruption case at the Indramayu DPRD, he noted that the case has now entered a special investigation phase.

“The Chief Prosecutor appreciated the dialogue with the students. Essentially, the demands regarding the case presented have now entered the special investigation phase, and investigators will schedule witness summons in that case,” he concluded.
