Over the last few months, many judges and court officials have been caught red-handed receiving bribes. Several days ago, the chief justice of the North Sulawesi High Court was also caught red-handed by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) in Jakarta.

Then, accusations emerged regarding the Supreme Court. This institution, as the center of all court officials, was deemed responsible for all deviations. There are those who think the Supreme Court has failed to maintain judicial honor, and there are others who have even urged Supreme Court Chief Justice Hatta Ali to resign.
