Can Be Criminally Charged

"You can go both ways. Formal law is a crystallization of morals and ethics, so taking CCTV can violate ethics because it is not careful or unprofessional and at the same time can be a criminal offense due to obstruction of justice and others," he told reporters, Sunday, August 7.

Mahfud reiterated that the alleged violation of ethics committed by Inspector General Sambo could go hand in hand with criminal allegations if proven guilty.

Because, continued Mahfud, ethical sanctions are not decided by the panel of judges. So that ethical violations can be dealt with together with a criminal.

"Yes, because ethical sanctions are not decided by judges and are not criminal penalties but administrative sanctions such as dismissal, demotion, reprimand, etc. While criminal justice is decided by judges whose punishment is criminal sanctions such as imprisonment, death penalty, seizure of property proceeds of crime, and so on," he said.

Promise of Criminal Investigation

Kabareskrim Komjen Agus Andrianto during a press conference on the progress of handling the case of Brigadier J's murder at the National Police Headquarters, Thursday, August 4.

"Of course, the obstacle to the effort to prove is the existence of damaged or omitted evidence, so it takes time to fully reveal this case," continued Komjen Agus.

Regarding the process of handling the killing of Brigadier J, Kabareskrim said the National Police team worked thoroughly, including the alleged involvement of other parties in the killing of Brigadier J.

"Later on, if there is a process of finding criminal violations rather than the actions carried out, whether it is blocking the investigation process, eliminating evidence, hiding evidence so that it hinders the investigation process, later after undergoing the process of examining the code of ethics, the recommendation from Mr. Irwasum will later become the basis Do we need to increase their status to become part of the perpetrators," said Komjen Agus.
