JAKARTA - The National Police said that Novel Baswedan and his friends would be assigned to a Corruption Crime Unit (Satker). The Satker is under the direct control of the National Police Chief Listyo Sigit Prabowo.

"The placement is a functional position in the Satker of the National Police Headquarters," said Head of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Inspector General Dedi Prasetyo to reporters, Thursday, December 9.

The placement of Novel cs in the satker is because the Directorate of Corruption Crimes (Ditipidkor) will be raised. This means that the leadership of Ditipdkor will be higher than other directorates.

"The Tipikor directorate organization will be expanded to become a higher organization, there are deputies. (For example) the deputy for prosecution, the deputy for prevention, the deputy for inter-institutional cooperation and then one more deputy," said Dedi.

But not all of them will be placed in the satker. Because, the placement will refer to their competence.

"According to competence, there are different backgrounds, there are HR in other satkers," said Dedi.

National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo appointed Novel Baswedan and 43 former employees of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). They officially became the Bhayangkara Corps State Civil Apparatus (ASN).

With Novel and his friends officially becoming National Police ASN, it is hoped that they can strengthen the Bhayangkara Corps. Especially in the sector of preventing corruption.
