Hand-Catch Operations (OTT) is a common term when the KPK ("Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi" or Corruption Eradication Commission) catches corruptors or suspected corruptors "in the act."

The KPK usually conducts OTTs based on public complaints. These complaints then lead to information gathering, investigation, and arrest if there is strong indication of corruption.

The KPK first conducted an OTT in 2005, when the institution was about two years old.

Since then, OTT activities have tended to increase, peaking in the 2016-2019 period, when Agus Rahardjo served as KPK Chairman.

During Agus Rahardjo's era, the number of KPK OTTs from 2016-2019 ranged from 17-30 times per year, the highest record in the institution's history.

Then, after Firli Bahuri became KPK Chairman, the number of OTTs from 2020-2022 decreased to 6-10 times per year.

In the first half of 2023, the KPK conducted 3 OTTs.

Despite the decrease, the number of OTTs during Firli Bahuri's era is not much different, and even slightly higher, than the era before Agus Rahardjo.

Based on the KPK's annual report, when Taufiequrachman Ruki served as KPK Chairman from 2003-2007, the number of OTTs ranged from only 1-3 times per year.

From 2008-2009, during the era of KPK Chairman Antasari Azhar, the number of OTTs was between 1-4 times per year.

Next, from 2010-2011, during the era of KPK Chairman M. Busyro Muqoddas, there were 2-6 OTTs per year.

Then, from 2012-2015, during the era of KPK Chairman Abraham Samad, the range was 4-10 OTTs per year, as shown in the graph above.

Pros and Cons of KPK OTTs

KPK OTTs often receive significant public attention. However, according to Rizky Oktavianto and Norin Mustika in *Evaluation of Hand-Catch Operations* (Antikorupsi Integritas Journal, December 2019), this enforcement strategy has drawn both pros and cons.

Proponents consider KPK OTTs an effective way to catch corruptors because they don't require lengthy bureaucratic procedures, are unexpected, and produce concrete evidence.

On the other hand, opponents argue that KPK OTTs are prone to violating privacy because their investigations use wiretapping and surveillance methods.

Opponents also argue that KPK OTTs often employ entrapment strategies lacking a clear legal basis and do not significantly impact the reduction of corruption in Indonesia.
