Kompolnas asked the National Police Propam Division to explore all statements by Tony Sutrisno regarding the alleged extortion committed by unscrupulous Bareskrim members. Including, about refunds.

"In the current monitoring, what and how the information comes from Tony Sutrisno, of course, needs to be explored by Propam. That would be better," said Commissioner of Kompolnas Yusuf Warsyim when confirmed, Saturday, December 24.

According to him, Kompolnas will also explore. In particular, regarding the evidence of documents containing refunds by a number of police officers to Tony Sutrisno.

"But, this is about repeating it, the truth will be monitored first whether there is a repeat of the truth," he said.

In addition, Tony Sutrisno was asked to convey the entire series of incidents of alleged extortion to Kompolnas. Thus, some of the growing allegations can be investigated.

"We really hope that this will be well clarified," said Yusuf.
