JAKARTA - The Head of Central Java Police (Central Java) Inspector General Ahmad Luthfi said, as many as 18 police from various units in the province had been dishonorably discharged during 2020.
"The number of members dismissed in 2020 has increased compared to seven in the previous year," said Ahmad Luthfi in Semarang, reported by Antara, Wednesday, December 30.
Of the 18 police officers who were fired, he said, 11 of them were involved in criminal acts. He said the decision to quit was an attempt to refresh the organization.
"To give a deterrent effect. If there is something good, then what is bad is maintained," he said.
In the police professional code of ethics, he continued, there are three types of punishment that can be imposed, namely apologies, respectful dismissal, and dishonorable dismissal.
The Central Java Regional Police, he said, emphasized the respectful and disrespectful dismissal.
He emphasized that police officers can enforce the law, but not by breaking the law.
