As Kompas reported on Wednesday (18/9/2019), civil society is preparing to file a request for judicial review with the Constitutional Court (MK) on the revisions to Law No. 30/2002 on the KPK. The KPK has also formed a team to study the implications of the newly approved revisions to the KPK Law. Many are also criticizing the draft KUHP Bill (RKUHP), on which the House of Representatives and the government have reached agreement.
