Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Mahfud MD emphasized that the debate over the OTT Basarnas polemic regarding the determination of Kabasarnas Marshal Henri Alfiandi to be named a suspect by the KPK did not need to be extended. The legal process against the alleged bribery related to the KPK OTT must be handled until the Milter Court.

"Even though it must be regretted, the problem that has occurred no longer needs to be debated for length. The important thing is that law enforcement continues to be carried out on the substance of the problem, namely corruption," said Mahfud MD in a written statement, Saturday, July 29.

The main problem is that the alleged bribery must be handled thoroughly. The procedural matter, said Mahfud, should not make the handling of the Kabasarnas case a 'disbursed'.

"The important thing is that the corruption problem whose substance has been informed and coordinated previously to the TNI must be continued and resolved through the Military Court. The debate about this in public space should not cause the substance of the case to run away so that it does not end up in the Military Court," said Mahfud.

Meanwhile, Deputy Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Alexander Marwata stated that no one blamed the investigators, investigators, and prosecutors on duty during the National SAR Agency (Basarnas) hand arrest operation (OTT). Even if there is a mistake, it means it comes from the leadership.

This was conveyed after the apology of the Deputy Chairperson of the KPK Johanis Tanak with a polemic. At that time, he said there was a mistake because the Head of Basarnas Marshal Henri Alfiandi and the Kabasarnas Administration Coordinator Lt. Col. Afri B. C. were named suspects without following military rules.

"I do not blame investigators, investigators or KPK prosecutors. They have worked according to their capacity and duties. If it is considered a mistake, it is the leadership's mistake," Alexander said in a written statement, Saturday, July 29.

Alexander then explained that from the start there had been strong evidence of the actions committed by five suspects. In fact, in the case title attended by the leadership to investigators from the KPK or the TNI Puspom, no one objected to the determination of Henri and Afri as suspects.

However, at that time the KPK issued three investigation warrants (sprindik) for suspects from the private sector. They are the President Commissioner of PT Multi Grafika Cipta Sejati Mulsunadi Gunawan, President Director of PT Intertekno Grafika Sejati Marilya, Managing Director of PT Kundah Abadi Utama Roni Aidil.

"For TNI personnel, the handling will be handed over to the TNI Puspom. Therefore, the KPK does not issue a sprindik on behalf of members of the TNI who are suspected of being the perpetrators," he said.
