JAKARTA - The interim chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Nawawi Pomolango (NG) said that the decision of the Deputy Chairperson of the KPK, Nurul Ghufron, to report members of the KPK Supervisory Board to the KPK Supervisory Board was a personal attitude. The leadership did not interfere.

"That is Pak NG's own attitude," said Nawawi when confirmed by reporters, Wednesday, April 24.

Nawawi said he had heard about the report. The head of the anti-corruption commission will respect what Ghufron did.

"Yes, I heard that," he said.

"But we other leaders respect Pak NG's steps," continued Nawawi.

As previously reported, the Deputy Chairperson of the KPK, Nurul Ghufron, reported one member of the supervisory board to the KPK Supervisory Board. He suspects there is abuse of authority.

"As a member of the KPK, I have an obligation as stipulated in Article 4 paragraph (2) letter b of Perdewas No. 3 of 2021 states: in implementing the basic values of integrity, every member of the Commission is obliged to report if they know of any alleged ethical violations committed by the Commission Personnel," said Nurul Ghufron to reporters in a written statement, Wednesday, April 24.

Ghufron said the alleged abuse of authority reported was in the form of a request for the results of the analysis of financial transactions of anti-corruption commission employees. He said the KPK Council was not authorized because it was not law enforcement officials.
