Indonesia wiretapping can continue / Mongolia people with disabilities risk / Maldives anti-corruption law amended

Indonesia Anti-Graft Agency Retains Legal Power for Wiretapping.  “[Indonesia’s constitutional court’s] decision addressed concerns that the 2019 revision of the law, which led to the establishment of a supervisory board for the [Corruption Eradication Commission], had weakened its power to carry out investigations. The court still ruled the overall amendment was constitutional and upheld an article that said corruption cases that can’t be concluded in two years must be dropped.”

Mongolia: People with disabilities are more prone to corruption.  “[The Indepdent Authority Against Corruption’s] survey found that people with disabilities were more likely to face corruption in the health, education, and social services sector. They also face corruption in the police, the judiciary, and the land administration authority. Therefore, IAAC has submitted the survey results to the relevant ministries and government agencies and instructed them to take administrative measures.”
