JAKARTA - The Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) stated that KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri did not violate ethics regarding the dismissal of Brigadier General Endar Priantoro as Director of Investigation. The decision is said to have been taken collectively collegially.

" procedurally, the decision letter to honorably dismiss Endar Priyantoro as Director of the KPK investigation was decided by the KPK leadership in a collective leadership meeting on March 29, 2023," said KPK Supervisory Board member Syamsuddin Haris at a press conference at the KPK Building C1, Rasuna Said, South Jakarta, Monday, June 19.

Syamsuddin stated that this dismissal decision was a concrete decision for individual and final state administration. In addition, the head of the anti-corruption commission as a user of civil servants who are employed can appoint extending or returning or dismissing structural and functional officials.

"In accordance with applicable laws and regulations," he said.

Based on the facts mentioned by Syamsuddin, the KPK Council decided not to continue the report of Brigadier General Endar Priantoro and other reporters, Sultoni. "The dismissal of Endar's brother as Director of the KPK investigation is that there is not enough evidence to proceed to the ethics trial," he said.

As for the clarification of the alleged ethical violation, there were 10 people who were questioned by the KPK Supervisory Board. They consist of 5 leaders as reported parties, reporters, and external parties.

As previously reported, Endar was honorably dismissed from the position of Director of Investigation on March 31 after he was returned to the National Police. However, the Bhayangkara Corps member was instead asked to return to the KPK according to the orders of the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo.

As a result of this incident, he reported KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri and KPK Secretary General Cahya H. Harefa to the KPK Supervisory Board.

Then Endar also reported other alleged violations such as leaking documents for investigating alleged corruption at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources to forcing the manufacture of documents even though the case title or exposure had not been carried out.

Not only that, Endar also reported the leadership, Secretary General, and Head of the KPK HR Bureau to the Indonesian Ombudsman. He suspects that maladministration occurred when he was dismissed as Director of Investigation of the KPK.
