The inauguration of Alam's second term proved controversial. Student groups protested due to Alam's implication in a graft case by the Corruption Eradication Commission, though the Supreme Court of Indonesia upheld the victory when Alam's election rival filed a legal challenge.[2] Formal graft accusations by the Commission in 2017 eventually led Home Affairs Minister Tjahjo Kumolo to promote Alam's deputy Saleh Lasata to acting governor in July that year.[3]
He was sentenced by the Jakarta Corruption Court in April 2018 to 12 years in prison, with official estimated losses of the state at Rp 1.5 trillion.[4]
