Deputy Chairman of CommissionIIIDPR Ahmad Sahroni admitted that he was sad with the arrest of the elected DPRK legislative candidate (caleg) in AcehTamiang with the initials S, related to drug trafficking cases. Sahroni reminded that a legislative candidate should be a good example for his voters.

"It's really sad to see drug cases like this, especially because the perpetrators are elected candidates. Aren't they ashamed of the electoral district community? Should he set an example of good behavior," Sahroni told reporters Monday, May 27.

According to Sahroni, due to the actions of these insecure individuals, the image of the people's representative council has become bad in the eyes of the community. Finally, he said, another member of the council became the sap.

"Well, these are the people who make the image of the people's representatives sometimes become ugly in the eyes of the community. Positions are only used to seek access and personal benefits," said the NasDem politician.

On the other hand, the Jakarta legislator appreciated the steps taken by the Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police which were considered not selective in eradicating drug trafficking perpetrators.

"It has to always be like this, even though the perpetrators are unscrupulous politicians, officials, and even officials. There should be no fear," he said.
