<![CDATA[The protection of whistleblower witnesses (whisteblower) in handling corruption crimes is still an unresolved problem to date. Referring to the LPSK report, there was a rapid increase in the number of complaints in 2021, with the number of corruption also increasing and requiring immediate resolution. Amid the complexity of these demands, both the LPSK and the KPK have not been able to effectively provide guaranteed protection for witnesses reporting corruption crimes. As a result, there are still many cases that cause victims, whether whistleblower witnesses who died, were criminalized, or received threats and intimidation.
