Prabowo to Appoint Permanent Prosecutor General in Days, Palace Says

The Indonesian Presidential Palace has announced that President Prabowo Subianto is expected to officially appoint a Special Prosecutor General (Jampidsus) within the next 1 to 2 days. This appointment will fill a crucial vacancy in Indonesia's law enforcement structure and is believed to aim at stabilizing and strengthening the judicial and prosecution sectors following the new administration's inauguration. The Jampidsus is responsible for leading investigations and prosecutions in critical cases affecting the nation's core, particularly in corruption and large-scale economic crimes. Therefore, the selection for this post is also being watched as an indicator of the Prabowo administration's stance as a state governed by the rule of law. While specific candidate names and detailed background information regarding the appointment have not yet been disclosed, the swift announcement from the Presidential Palace suggests the new administration's intention to solidify the foundation of judicial administration at an early stage.
