The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said it would ask the Attorney General's Office (AGO) to send a new prosecutor to carry out the prosecution process. This was conveyed by KPK spokesman Tessa Mahardika when asked about the withdrawal of 10 senior prosecutors at the KPK by the AGO. One of those who were asked to go home was Ali Fikri, who was the former spokesperson for the KPK's prosecution. "Of course the KPK will ask the Prosecutor's Office to be able to send new prosecutor candidates to be selected as public prosecutors at the KPK," Tessa told reporters, Tuesday, August 13. The prosecutors who were returned will be effective in returning to the Adhyaksa Corps on September 1. Meanwhile, the prosecutor will only be employed after the selection is carried out. " “ It doesn't happen later that the prosecutor will be new, maybe 10 out, 10 in, not like that," he said. As previously reported, the Attorney General's Office (AGO) did not immediately send a new prosecutor to the KPK after withdrawing 10 of its members. They are waiting for a request because there are usually conditions that must be met. "We'll see the request from the KPK later because they know their needs there. Maybe there are requirements, for example, that the prosecutor must be in this rank or has served as a prosecutor for a long time," said Harli when confirmed by reporters quoted on Monday, August 12. " “ Those who know (needs, ed) are friends at the KPK. The principle AGO is ready to support, ” he continued.

Furthermore, Harli said the 10 senior prosecutors had been returned last week. The “Yesterday was delivered by the Secretary General of the KPK and if I'm not mistaken, the Head of the HR Bureau was delivered to us, so the term was faced, "” he said.
