Corruption courts will be established in the capital cities of all 33 Indonesian provinces by the end of this year, Chief justice Harifin A Tumpa says.

Six judges specializing in corruption will be assigned to each province; two will work at the high court and four in its district court, Tumpa said in Bandalampung on Wednesday evening, as quoted by Antara.

The corruption courts would hold trial hearings and have their secretariats at existing district courts, he said.
