JAKARTA - The Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will not only hold an ethics hearing against KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri. Dewas will also conduct an ethical trial by the Chairman of the KPK Employees Forum, Yudi Purnomo Harahap.

This trial will be held on August 24 and will be held at the KPK Anti-Corruption Learning Center building on Jalan HR. Rasuna Said Kavling C1, Setiabudi, South Jakarta.

"The first trial was held on August 24, 2020 with YPH investigating the suspicion of spreading false information," said Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the KPK, Tumpak Hatorangan Panggabean, in a written statement, Wednesday, August 19.

As an investigator, Yudi was suspected of violating the code of ethics and code of conduct for Integrity in Article 4 paragraph 1 letter o KPK Supervisory Board Regulation Number 02 of 2020.

Tumpak said the trial would not be held openly to the public. This is in accordance with the Corruption Eradication Commission Supervisory Board Regulation Number 3 of 2020 concerning Procedures for Examination and Trials of Code of Ethics and Code of Conduct Violations of the Corruption Eradication Commission as regulated in Article 8.

Responding to the ethics trial schedule, Yudi admitted that he would attend. "I have received a summons and I will be present at the ethical hearing to honor the fathers and mothers of the KPK Dewas," he said when confirmed.

He explained why he ran an ethics trial. According to Yudi, he was suspected of violating the code of ethics because of his statements to the media while advocating for his colleague Kompol Rossa Purbo Bekti.

It is known that Kompol Rossa is one of the three investigators the KPK has returned to the Police. Their return took place during the KPK investigation into the alleged bribery case for the replacement of DPR RI members through the interim replacement mechanism (PAW) with the suspect Harun Masiku and three other people.

When polemic, the head of the KPK Employee Council, Yudi Purnomo, assessed that Rosa's return was carried out unilaterally.

"Mas Rosa never received notification of exactly when he was dismissed from the KPK and what was the clear reason because there had never been any breach of discipline or ethical sanctions committed by him," said Yudi in his statement some time ago.

Now, Kompol Rossa has been declared back to work at the anti-graft agency as an investigator.

Apart from Yudi and Firli, an employee with the initials APZ will also undergo an ethics trial on August 26.

As investigated, APZ is suspected of violating the code of ethics and code of conduct for Synergy in Article 5 paragraph 2 letter a of KPK Supervisory Board Regulation Number 02 of 2020.

Previously, KPK chairman Firli Bahuri was scheduled to undergo an ethics trial on August 25. This trial was held because Firli was suspected of violating the code of ethics for using a luxury helicopter while visiting the graves of his parents in South Sumatra.

"The ethics trial was held on August 25, 2020, with FB investigating for allegedly using a helicopter during a private trip from Palembang to Baturaja," said Tumpak in his written statement, Wednesday, August 19.

As examined, Firli is suspected of violating the code of ethics and code of conduct for Integrity in Article 4 paragraph 1 letter c or Article 4 paragraph 1 letter n or Article 4 paragraph 2 letter m and / or leadership in Article 8 paragraph 1 letter f KPK Supervisory Board Regulation Number 2 2020 year.
