JAKARTA - The National Police is preparing a legal umbrella regarding the recruitment of 57 former KPK employees. The goal is to maintain the legality of former KPK employees as State Civil Apparatus (ASN).
"A legal umbrella is being made for the implementation of recruitment. Everything is being prepared so that when recruitment is carried out the legality can be maintained," said Karo Penmas of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Brigadier General Rusdi Hartono to reporters, Wednesday, November 10.
The legal umbrella in question, said Rusdi, relates to recruitment rules. In drafting this legal basis, the National Police cooperates with the relevant ministries.
In the process of preparing this legal umbrella, Rusdi did not deny that the process took a long time. All matters related to recruitment provisions must be carefully prepared.
"This is what needs to be prepared carefully, hopefully it can be resolved by the Police, BKN, and Kemenpan RB. We'll just have to wait," said Rusdi.
For information, 57 employees were declared no longer able to work at the KPK because they could not become ASN according to the mandate of the KPK Law Number 19 of 2019 as of the end of last September. The employees include senior KPK investigators Novel Baswedan and Ambarita Damanik, Chairman of the KPK Employee Forum Yudi Purnomo, KPK investigator Harun Al-Rasyid, and dozens of other names.
The KPK argued that their inability to become ASN was not due to laws and regulations such as Perkom KPK Number 1 of 2021, but because of the results of their assessment.
Responding to this condition, the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit admitted that he wanted to recruit dozens of KPK employees who did not pass the TWK to become Polri ASN. This wish was conveyed through a letter to President Jokowi and was approved.
There is also the reason Sigit wants to recruit tens of these employees because the Police need human resources to strengthen the line of prosecution of corruption cases. Moreover, the Police are currently also focusing on handling the recovery of COVID-19.
