DOK VOI

JAKARTA - The inauguration of Novel Baswedan and 43 former employees of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) into the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) of the National Police will not interfere with the cooperation that has been established between the two institutions. Moreover, many KPK investigators are from the Bhayangkara Corps.

This assurance was conveyed by the Deputy Chairman of the KPK Alexander Marwata in response to the inauguration of dozens of former employees today or Thursday, December 9.

"If the synergy between the KPK and the police is certain, that's right, the KPK investigators are part of the police," Alexander told reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta.

Not only investigators, Alexander also said many directors in his institution also came from the police. So, the synergy between the two will certainly continue and will not be affected by the inauguration of Novel Baswedan et al.

Moreover, Alexander said, Novel Baswedan et al have become free people and no longer have anything to do with the KPK. So, any agency is welcome if you want to recruit them.

"We are done with 44 KPK employees who have been dismissed as of September 30," he said.

"This means that they become free people and if there are other agencies that want to use their power, it is their right if for example everything has gone through procedures that are in accordance with the laws and regulations," added Alexander.

As previously reported, the inauguration of Novel Baswedan and other former KPK employees will be held at the Rupatama Building, Police Headquarters.

After being sworn in, Novel Baswedan et al will first attend the Education Center for the Administration of the National Police Education Institute (Pusdikmin Lemdikpol), Bandung, West Java after being sworn in.

Furthermore, they will carry out special tasks from the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo, namely overseeing COVID-19 funds and national strategic projects and helping to oversee the national economic recovery.
