Are there non-government bodies who investigate and report corruption? Absolutely. There are numerous private whistleblower organizations in the Republic.
If so, are they given freedom to report on confirmed and possible cases of corruption? Yes. Actually, the freedom is not given to them per say, for it is inherent and inviolable, as outlined in our Constitution. We acknowledge and protect this freedom.
Are journalists and members of the public free to express their concerns regarding corruption in your nation? Yes. The right to speak freely is respected here.

Corruption Punishment
What is the maximum sentence for committing financial fraud via government means? Incarceration and expulsion from the government position.
What is the maximum sentence for committing electoral fraud? Incarceration and expulsion from the government position.
What is the maximum sentence for misleading voters in an election? What do you mean by misleading? One small slip-up is not a crime. An outright lie could be punishable of incarceration - or even execution, if such statements involve knowingly defaming someone by accusing him/her of a capital offense.
What is the maximum sentence for committing a conflict of interest crime? Those that are legally punishable (e.g. accepting a bribe) are mostly punishable by incarceration and expulsion from the government position. Directly and knowingly aiding the enemy at times of war, however, is treason and punishable by execution.
Are those suspected of corruption-related crimes stood down from office while the investigation takes place? They are temporarily stood down, with "technical votes" for any legislation written. If they are found guilty, the technical votes are discarded, and they are punished as required by law. If they are not found guilty, however, they resume their duties and the technical votes count as votes. Investigations should be quick, anyways, due to our advanced technology and competitive private organizations, so chances are we wouldn't need to deal with this anyways.
