JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of Commission III of the DPR Ahmad Sahroni appreciated the steps taken by the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo to disable two high-ranking officers and one middle officer in investigating the shooting case of Brigadier J.
According to him, this step is the intention of the National Police Chief to open this case openly and widely.
"To maintain a good name, I believe that the National Police can hide this case. However, it is extraordinary that the National Police Chief chose to open this widely. I highly appreciate this good intention," said Sahroni to reporters, Thursday, July 21.
The NasDem politician said that this step was taken so that the investigation into the shooting of Brigadier Joshua could be carried out quickly and clearly. Sahroni said the decision was also to protect the good name of the National Police.
"So that the investigation can be carried out quickly and clearly. All of this is done for the sake of fairness and for the credibility and good name of the Polri institution," he explained.
Sahroni also considered that the National Police Chief's decision had gone through careful consideration. "I think the National Police Chief's decision has been through careful consideration," he said.
It is known, National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo with a special team he formed continues to investigate and find the real facts behind the bloody incident that killed Nopryansah Yosua Hutabarat alias Brigadier J.
So far, the process is still at the stage of finding evidence and clues. The goal was to 'sew' the red thread behind the series of events that Brigadier J was said to have died in a shootout with Bharada RE at Inspector General Ferdy Sambo's halfway house.
However, behind it all, the National Police Chief has taken firm steps. He deactivated two generals and one mid-level officer during the investigation into the Brigadier J.
The first general to be deactivated was none other than Inspector General Ferdy Sambo. He was temporarily removed from his position as the Head of the Propam Police Division. The announcement of the removal of the two-star general was delivered directly by the National Police Chief on Monday, July 18.
"I have decided for Inspector General of Police Ferdy Sambo to temporarily deactivate his position," said Listyo Sigit.
The National Police Chief briefly explained the reasons behind the deactivation of Inspector General Ferdy Sambo. It was stated that this step was taken solely to maintain objectivity in handling the death of Brigadier J.
With this removal, the position of the Head of the Propam Division will be handed over to the Deputy Chief of the National Police, Komjen Gatot Eddy Pramono. Originally, the Deputy Chief of Police was the head of a special team formed by the Chief of Police.
"This is of course to ensure that what we have done so far regarding our commitment to maintaining objectivity, transparency and accountability, we can really maintain," said Sigit.
Despite the announcement of the decommissioning, the special team continues to work. According to Sigit, the witnesses who were considered to have known, seen, and heard of the bloody incident were dug up for their statements.
Not long after, Sigit again issued an important decision. He also disabled generals and middle officers.
They are Brigadier General Hendra Kurniawan and Kombes Budhi Herdi Susianto.
Brigadier General Hendra Kurniawan was originally the Karo Paminal of the Police Propam Division. Meanwhile, Kombes Budhi Herdi Susianto serves as the South Jakarta Metro Police Chief.
The Head of the National Police did not directly convey the deactivation of the two. Instead, through the Head of the Public Relations Division of the Police, Inspector General Dedi Prasetyo.
According to Dedi, the National Police Chief has considered his removal. Until finally, they were officially deactivated on Wednesday, July 20.
"Tonight, the National Police Chief has decided to deactivate two people. The first is Karo Paminal Brigadier General Hendra Kurniawan. The second is the South Jakarta Police Chief, Kombes Budhi Herdi," said Dedi.
The deactivation of these two Polri officers is to maintain independence and transparency in the investigation of the bloody incident that killed Brigadier J in the police shooting case.
Later, to replace the position of the South Jakarta Metro Police Chief, continued Dedi, the Metro Jaya Police Chief will immediately appoint him.
"The interim acting will be administratively appointed by the Regional Police Chief," continued Dedi.
This deactivation, continued Inspector General Dedi, at the same time ensuring that the investigation process that has been running so far can be accounted for. "To maintain this independence, transparency and accountability," said Dedi
