JAKARTA - Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Mahfud MD asked the National Police to thoroughly investigate the case of the police shooting the police at the shelter for the Head of the Propam Division, Inspector General Ferdy Sambo. The credibility of the Police and the government is at stake in investigating this case.

"The credibility of the National Police and the government is at stake in this case, because in the past year or so, the Police have always received high positive ratings or perceptions from the public, according to the results of various survey institutions. The government's positive performance was significantly contributed by the fields of politics and security, as well as law enforcement. The results of the latest survey of Political Indicators that were announced yesterday, for example, said so," said Mahfud MD via his Instagram account mohmahfudmd, Wednesday, July 13.

Mahfud MD said that the step of the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo to form a joint investigation team was the right one. The Coordinating Ministry for Political, Legal and Security Affairs emphasized that Mahfud MD would guard it.

"This case cannot be allowed to just flow because there are many irregularities that emerged from the handling process, as well as the Police's own explanation, which is not clear about the relationship between the cause and effect of each chain of events," said Mahfud MD.

"As the Head of Kompolnas, I have ordered the Secretary of Kompolnas Benny J. Mamoto to actively investigate this case in order to help the POLRI make the case clear," continued Mahfud.

Currently, the progress of handling the case of police shooting the police, called Mahfud, is good.

"The progress is also good because apart from forming a team, the National Police Chief has also announced to cooperate with Kompolnas and Komnas HAM to clearly reveal this case," he said.
