JAKARTA - National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo will consult with President Prabowo Subianto regarding the person who will fill the position of Deputy Kelapa of the Indonesian National Police (Wakapolri).

The position was vacant after Komjen Ahmad Dofiri officially released his responsibility as Deputy Chief of Police at the Handover Ceremony of Tasks and Responsibility of the Deputy Chief of Police on Monday, June 30, 2025.

"It will be consulted later, yes (consulting with the President)," Sigit told reporters quoted Monday, July 7.

Some time earlier, to be precise, July 3, Sigit had originally stated the same thing. It is said that the Police have indeed prepared candidates to fill the position of number two person in the Bhayangkara Corps.

However, the names will be submitted to President Prabowo Subianto before being announced to the public.

"What is clear is that there are certainly many good candidates from the National Police institution, candidates who meet the requirements. We are currently preparing and later we will ask for instructions from the President and after that, of course, we will announce it immediately," said Sigit.

The names of the Deputy Chief of Police candidates have been strengthened by a statement from the Head of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Inspector General Shandi Nugroho. It was stated that the National Police Chief had pocketed the names of its members who were deemed appropriate to replace Komjen Ahmad Dofiri.

"Until now, the best candidates from high-ranking police officers to occupy the Deputy Chief of Police are in the hands of the National Police Chief," said Shandi.

The names will not be disclosed. However, it will be announced in the near future.

"Hopefully, in the not too distant future, we can immediately announce it to replace Mr. Dofiri as Deputy Chief of Police for the following position," said Shandi.

It is known that Komjen Ahmad Dofiri officially entered retirement after his 58th birthday on June 4, 2025.
