Bribery is a widely used modus operandi in corruption cases. In 2016, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) handled 79 bribery cases. This was followed by procurement of goods and services cases, totaling four. In total, the KPK handled 96 cases in 2016, encompassing six types of offenses.
The high number of bribery cases handled by the KPK is inseparable from the frequent sting operations (OTT). Throughout 2016, the anti-corruption agency conducted at least 17 sting operations. From these operations, the KPK named 56 suspects from various backgrounds, ranging from law enforcement officers and legislators to regional heads.
