Jakarta – Due toโค capacity โฃconstraints at its own facilities, Indonesia’s Corruption Eradication Commissionโข (KPK) โฃhas placed Dayang, the son of former โฃEast Kalimantan Governor Awang Faroek Ishak, in the Pondok bambu Women’s Detention Centerโ in East Jakarta. The move โขcomes as part of an examination into bribery โคrelated to mining business permits (IUP) in east Kalimantan.
The KPK Detention Center is currently operating at โfull capacity following a series of recentโข arrests, necessitating the temporary transfer of detainees. “Because of the condition of the detention center in โthe KPK,which is full due to a numberโข of new suspects who have been detained in the Red andโค White KPK Detention Center and in the C-1 Detention Center,this is a solution โคwhen the KPKโ Detention center is currently in fullโฃ condition,” explained KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo on Wednesday,October 9,2025.
Dayang is accused of receiving Rp 3.5 billion from businessman Rudy Ong Chandra in exchange for facilitating the extension of six mining business licenses.
