Komnas HAM Will Announce TWK Findings For KPK Employees On August 16

JAKARTA - Chairman of the National Human Rights Commission (Komnas HAM) Ahmad Taufan Damanik said the announcement of the findings of alleged human rights violations in the National Insight Test Assessment (TWK) for KPK employees will be announced next week.

"Our plan (announcement of the results of the report is carried out, ed) on August 16," said Taufan when confirmed by reporters, Monday, August 9.

He said that his party is still continuing to explore and finalize the report. "There are many findings that we need to deepen and we need to cross-check to make them more valid," he said.

As previously reported, Komnas HAM has postponed the submission of recommendations on reports of alleged human rights violations in the TWK process. This decision was taken after the discovery of strong new facts.

This alleged violation report was made by a KPK employee who was declared not to have passed the TWK as a condition for changing the status of the employee to the State Civil Apparatus (ASN). Apart from reporting their fate to Komnas HAM, reports are also made to a number of other institutions including the Indonesian Ombudsman.

Meanwhile, in the process of clarifying this allegation, Komnas HAM has summoned a number of parties, including all KPK leaders, which in the end were represented by the Deputy Chairperson of the KPK, Nurul Ghufron. In addition, the KPK also summoned the Head of the State Personnel Agency (BKN) as the executor of the TWK assessment.
