Surabaya University Professor of Law, Prof. Dr. Suparto Wijoyo SH MHUm, said that the discourse on placing the National Police under the TNI or the Ministry of Home Affairs (Kemendagri) deviated from the 1945 Constitution (UUD).
"This is in accordance with Article 30 of the 1945 Constitution, the National Police is under the President and is directly responsible to the President," he said in Surabaya, Sunday.
Previously, member of Commission III of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Deddy Sitorus from the PDIP faction, conveyed a discourse regarding the placement of the National Police under the TNI or the Ministry of Home Affairs.

Furthermore, Suparto explained that the National Police as an independent state institution is tasked with maintaining order and security, law enforcement, and protecting the community, without direct interference from the government or other ministries.
If the existence of the National Police under the Ministry of Home Affairs and other ministries there is a concern that the decisions taken can be influenced by political interests or policies of certain ministries.
He added that this could interfere with the objectivity and professionalism of the police as law enforcement agencies in Indonesia.
"This is in accordance with the principle of separating power in a democratic country to ensure that state power is not misused," he said.
