TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil appointed Bandung City's regional secretary Ema Sumarna as the acting mayor of the city. This was decided following the arrest of Bandung Mayor Yana Mulyana by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) last week.
Ema said he is ready to carry out the task. "In accordance with the orders of the Governor of West Java, I am ready to carry out this task until there is a further policy," he said on Monday, April 17.
Meanwhile, the Corruption Eradication Commission or KPK on Monday, April 17, 2023, searched a number of places related to Yana Mulyana's bribery scandal. One of the places was the Bandung City Hall.
During a sting operation on Friday, April 14, the KPK arrested Yana Mulyana and eight other people on charges of allegedly receiving bribes in the procurement of CCTV and internet networks for the Bandung Smart City project for the 2022-2023 Fiscal Year.
