JAKARTA - Allegations of immoral acts by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) officers of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) have apparently been handled by the Supervisory Board (Dewas). Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri said the officer had been sentenced to a moderate ethical violation. "Dewas then carried out an analysis and examination of related parties followed by an ethics trial in April 2023, with a moderate ethical violation decision," Ali told reporters in his written statement, Friday, June 23. Ali said that this immoral act had been reported by the public since January. "The party in question has subsequently carried out the ethical trial decision," he stressed. In addition, the Inspectorate also took action on the immoral act. This layered enforcement is to ensure that employees work by upholding the code of ethics. Previously, former KPK investigator Novel Baswedan revealed allegations of immorality in the KPK detention center. This has made the acceptance of illegal levies revealed. "There is an immoral case against the wife of KPK detainees," Novel told reporters in his written statement, Friday, June 23.

Novel did not specify the immoral act. However, he said the act was carried out by an officer who led to a complaint to the KPK Supervisory Board. However, the KPK Council actually focused on finding illegal levies. "They covered up the fact that there was a report from the wife of the detainee regarding the harassment by KPK officers," said Novel.
