ILLUSTRA TION BY VOI

BANDUNG - The West Java Illegal Charges Sweeping Task Force (Saber Pungli) found allegations of extortion involving two leaders at the State Senior High School (SMAN) 22 Bandung.

Head of the West Java Saber Pungli Data and Information Division, Yudi Ahadiat, said the two school leaders were suspected to be the school principal with the initials H and the vice principal for public relations with the initials ER. The two are suspected of charging transfer students fees.

"We went to school, did an inspection, after it was proven that there was a levy made by ER with the knowledge and knowledge of the principal with the initials H," said Yudi in Bandung, quoted by Antara, Monday, January 17.

According to him, the alleged extortion originated from complaints from parents who wanted to move their children from out of town to study in Bandung.

Departing from the complaint, according to him, the Saber Extortion Team immediately conducted a search to the school that was complained of.

From the initial inspection, he said, it was found that Rp. 30 million was found in extortion. Yudi suspects that the school extortion did not only happen to one student.

Yudi said the two school leaders were suspected of collaborating to carry out extortion actions against students or their parents.

"Whatever the reason, we don't accept it, whether it's for schools, mosques, we don't accept it, so it's not a justification," he said.

From a number of examinations and evidence obtained, according to him, West Java's Saber Pungli immediately conducted a case to determine the status of the case.

"There is not a single article that requires administrative payments, nothing. If there is any (extortion) then the person concerned will be subject to sanctions in accordance with the mandate of the Governor's Regulation (Governor Regulation)," said Yudi.
