JAKARTA - The National Human Rights Commission (Komnas HAM) sent a summons for the second time for the leadership of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK).
This summons was made to request information related to alleged violations in the process of implementing the National Insight Test Assessment (TWK) for anti-corruption commission employees.
"Today we sent a second summons to the leadership and the Secretary General of the KPK for information," said Komnas HAM Investigation Monitoring Commissioner Choirul Anam in a press conference broadcast on Komnas HAM YouTube, Wednesday, June 9.
This summons is necessary so that Firli Bahuri et al, can clarify the reports and evidence submitted by 75 employees who were declared not to have passed the test. Thus, the results or findings of Komnas HAM will be balanced.
"So this is a good tradition, we can't accuse anyone. Whether he is a human rights violator, a corruptor, he can't, there must be a procedure. Komnas HAM is carrying out the procedure," he said.
If later the KPK leadership came to fulfill the summons, Anam said there would be at least 20 to 30 questions that would be asked by the investigative team. This is to explore a number of clusters found by Komnas HAM, starting from the cluster of TWK implementation to the legal basis used.
So, Anam hopes that the next summons, which is Tuesday, June 15, Firli Bahuri et al can attend and provide information and confirmation regarding the TWK polemic.
"We hope that our colleagues at the KPK can come and this will be a good process for all of us and for a process of respecting people, respecting institutions, to get their right to provide self-defense, and provide an opportunity to explain something that is accepted by anyone who enforces human rights. "explained Anam.
"There are important questions, there are confirmation questions. If it is not confirmed and we consider it in accordance with the AA document, we will conclude. Even though this is a good opportunity," he added.
As previously reported, the KPK stated that its leadership would not attend the summons of Komnas HAM and only sent a letter asking for an explanation of what human rights were violated in the process of transferring the status of its employees. This examination should have been held last Tuesday, June 8th.
"Monday, June 7, 2021, the KPK leadership has sent a letter to Komnas HAM asking for an explanation of what human rights were violated in the implementation of the transfer of the status of KPK employees," Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Affairs Ali Fikri told reporters.
Furthermore, Ali emphasized that the transfer of employment status carried out by the KPK is a law mandate. The implementation of the TWK which is a requirement is also in accordance with the mechanisms and applicable laws and regulations.
For information, the National Insight Test was attended by 1,351 KPK employees. Of these, 1,274 people were declared eligible.
Meanwhile, 75 employees, including Novel Baswedan, Chairman of the KPK Employee Forum who is also investigator Yudi Purnomo, Director of Socialization and Anti-Corruption Campaign Giri Suprapdiono, Head of the KPK Task Force Harun Al-Rasyid, and Director of PJKAKI Sujarnarko were declared ineligible (TMS). While the other two employees did not attend the interview test.
According to the employees who were declared unsuccessful, there were a number of anomalies in the implementation of this assessment. Including, there are a number of questions that are considered to violate the private sphere.
These employees who did not pass, then reported the implementation of the TWK to Komnas HAM. Subsequently, a special team was formed, led by two commissioners, namely Choirul Anam and Sandrayati Moniaga to investigate the alleged human rights violations in this test.
In addition to submitting reports to Komnas HAM, these employees also reported their leadership to a number of parties, from the KPK Supervisory Board to the Indonesian Ombudsman.
