Indonesia's President Dismisses Chief of Staff Amid Phone-Tapping Allegations
Indonesia's President Prabowo Subianto dismissed his chief of staff, Listyo Sigit Prabowo, following allegations of illegal phone tapping involving the president's communications. The scandal has led to arrests of senior police officers and raised concerns about national security and the political alliance between Prabowo and former president Jokowi. While Jokowi had supported Prabowo's 2024 campaign, tensions have emerged amid reshuffles removing Jokowi loyalists from the administration. Investigations into the wiretapping continue without a clear motive disclosed.
