<![CDATA[Corruption is a criminal act that requires extraordinary prevention and handling. One of the efforts to eradicate corruption is the application of special minimum criminal provisions.The implementation of this special minimum criminal sanction needs to be supported by the judge as the law enforcer who determines the severity of the crimes imposed in the judicial system.
