Indonesia's police chief has revealed that an alleged illegal surveillance operation targeting President Prabowo Subianto also followed senior government officials, politicians, lawmakers, anti-corruption officials, social activists and students. The wiretapping took place between 2025 and 2026 and implicated four senior police officers, including the former police chief and current chief of staff to the president, Listio Sigit Pravo, close to former president Joko Widodo. Investigators claim that recordings of President Pravo's phone calls were deliberately deleted. The authorities are investigating who ordered the surveillance and why, as the suspects face a series of charges that carry prison terms of up to 10 years.
