Head Of KPK Detention Center Examined For Ethics Related To Alleged Extortion Today

JAKARTA - Allegations of ethical violations related to illegal levies at the detention center (rutan) were again tried by the KPK Supervisory Board today, Thursday, March 14. The head of the KPK Detention Center, Achmad Fauzi, was examined behind closed doors.

"Yes, at 09.00 WIB, the AF Karutan was examined," said KPK Council Member Syamsuddin Haris to reporters during confirmation, Thursday, March 14.

This examination is a continuation of the trial held by the KPK Council yesterday. The former Acting KPK Karutan Ristanta and Hengki, who are former Plt Kamtib, have been examined but the results have not been submitted.

Submission of the results of the ethics trial is usually carried out when the KPK Supervisory Board reads out the verdict.

As previously reported, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Council has decided that 78 employees have been proven to have violated ethics for being involved in alleged illegal levies. They were sentenced to express their open apologies and have been implemented on Monday, February 26.

While the other 12 were handed over to the Secretary General of the KPK. The reason is that their actions occurred before the KPK Council was formed.

Recently, the anti-corruption commission has also investigated this case through the deputy for prosecution and execution. In total, there are more than 10 people named as suspects.

One of them is Hengki, who is a civil servant employed (PNYD) from the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kemenkumham). The figure who currently works at the Secretariat of the DKI Jakarta DPRD is referred to as the mastermind or mastermind of the extortion practice that occurs.
