JAKARTA - The Supervisory Board (Dewas) of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will summon a number of high-ranking police officers to follow up on Brigadier General Endar Priantoro's report regarding his dismissal as Director of Investigation. One of them, Assistant Human Resources (HR) of the National Police Chief Inspector General Dedi Prasetyo.

"Dewas still needs clarification from the police, namely the Assistant for HR of the National Police Chief Inspector General Dedi Prasetyo," said KPK Council Member Syamsudin Haris in a written statement, Wednesday, April 3.

Syamsuddin said that the KPK Council had actually summoned Dedi some time ago. However, he was not present because there was another activity.

"Dewas is still waiting for confirmation of the time," he said.

Even so, it is certain that reports of alleged ethical violations submitted by Endar will continue to be investigated. "The case of dismissal or dismissal of Mr. Endar is still in process," said Syamsudin.

As previously reported, Endar was honorably dismissed from the position of Director of Investigation on March 31 after he was returned to the National Police. However, the Bhayangkara Corps member was instead asked to return to the KPK according to the orders of the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo.

As a result of this incident, he reported KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri and KPK Secretary General Cahya H. Harefa to the KPK Supervisory Board. In addition, Endar also reported other alleged violations such as leaking documents for investigating alleged corruption at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources to forcing the manufacture of documents even though the title of the case or exposure had not been carried out.

Not only that, Endar also reported the leadership, Secretary General, and Head of the KPK HR Bureau to the Indonesian Ombudsman. He suspects that maladministration occurred when he was dismissed while the KPK Director of Investigation.
