JAKARTA - Indonesia Calling (IM) 57+ Institute reported Deputy Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Nurul Ghufron to the Supervisory Board. He is suspected of violating the code of ethics for reporting KPK Council Member Albertina Ho when investigating alleged ethical violations.

"This effort is certainly contrary to the tasks carried out by the KPK leadership which actually hinders this process," said IM 57+ Institute Advisory Board Novel Baswedan at the ACLC KPK Building, Rasuna Said, South Jakarta, Friday, April 26.

Novel said that Ghufron's efforts were a serious problem. Moreover, Albertina Ho was reported when she worked to handle the alleged ethical violation of the prosecutor with the initials IT who extorted witnesses of up to Rp. 3 billion.

"I think the disclosure of the corruption case internally by the KPk begins with an examination on the supervisory board," he said.

"So efforts to hinder, block or obstruct the ethical examination process carried out by the supervisory board can be interpreted as an effort to hinder the disclosure of acts of corruption committed," continued the former investigator.

Furthermore, Novel hopes that their report against Ghufron can be handled. Dewas has an obligation to follow up on the KPK leadership who commits ethical violations," he said.

As previously reported, KPK Deputy Chair Nurul Ghufron reported KPK Supervisory Board member Albertina Ho to the KPK Supervisory Board for allegedly abusing his authority after coordinating with the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK). In addition, he also filed a lawsuit at the Jakarta State Administrative Court (PTUN).

Albertina personally suspects that the report was carried out because Ghufron stumbled on an ethical violation of his abuse of authority related to the transfer of employees at the Ministry of Agriculture (Kementan) which will be tried on May 2.

Meanwhile, Ghufron submitted the assessment to the public. He only said that the reporting and lawsuits were made because he saw an ethical violation.

"It's our obligation to enforce ethics by obliging to report it," Ghufron told reporters, Thursday, April 25.

"Every member of the KPK enforces the values of integrity and is asked to report it," continued Ghufron, saying that he had handed over the entire process to the Supervisory Board.
