Indonesian police detain investigator in latest blow to anti-graft agency

Jakarta

INDONESIAN police detained a top anti-graft investigator on Friday to question him over his role in the deadly shooting of a thief more than a decade ago - the latest blow to the widely popular law enforcement agency.

The Corruption Eradication Agency (KPK), popular among ordinary Indonesians for being a thorn in the side of the Indonesian establishment, has been severely weakened over the past four months in a tit-for-tat feud with the police.
