JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) emphasized that Lili Pintauli Siregar, who is now the deputy chairman, is still concentrating on carrying out her duties. This was conveyed in response to the news of the resignation of the former Deputy Chairperson of the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK).
This news emerged after Lili was again reported to the KPK Supervisory Board and will soon be tried for ethics for allegedly receiving accommodation and MotoGP tickets from PT Pertamina (Persero).
"KPK leader Mrs. Lili Pintauli Siregar has not confirmed this matter and is still concentrating on carrying out her duties and other assignment agendas for the future," Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Affairs Ali Fikri told reporters, Friday, July 1.
Ali emphasized that his party would also not intervene in the investigation into the alleged ethical violations committed by Lili by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). The anti-corruption commission supports the ongoing process.
Moreover, the enforcement of ethics as carried out by the KPK Council is considered an effort to strengthen the work of eradicating corruption.
"The KPK certainly supports the ongoing ethical enforcement process at the KPK Supervisory Board as its duties and authorities are regulated in Article 37B of the KPK Law," he stressed.
"We believe that the enforcement of the code of ethics for commission personnel is part of efforts to strengthen the eradication of corruption carried out by the KPK," Ali continued.
Previously, KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri had also spoken about the news of Lili's resignation. The former deputy for prosecution of the Corruption Eradication Commission admitted that he did not know about the letter that was submitted to him.
"Well, I don't know yet," said Firli to reporters at the DPR RI Building, Senayan, Central Jakarta, Thursday, June 30.
Firli also did not answer more about the news that Lili's resignation letter had been submitted. He only emphasized that currently the investigation into the alleged ethical violation by Lili was still being handled by the KPK Council.
"It is being investigated by the KPK Council. What is certain is that the KPK is committed to resolving the case and we entrust it to the Council. Please ask the Council," he said as he walked away.
Lili was again reported to the KPK Council for allegedly receiving hotel accommodation facilities and tickets to watch the 2022 MotoGP race at the Mandalika International Circuit, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), from PT Pertamina (Persero).
Against this allegation, member of the KPK Supervisory Board Syamsuddin Haris an ethics trial will be held on Tuesday, July 5. The trial will be held behind closed doors while the reading of the verdict will be opened according to the KPK Council Regulations.
