JAKARTA - Member of the Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Albertina Ho has denied allegations of her involvement in the making of Decree (SK) Number 652 of 2021 which became the basis for the deactivation of 75 employees who did not pass the National Insight Test (TWK).

This accusation was conveyed by the head of the inactive KPK Anti-Corruption Learning Task Force Hotman Tambunan. He was 1 of 75 employees who were declared not to have passed the TWK and had to give up their duties and responsibilities.

"I am not the drafter of the letter," Albertina told reporters quoted on Tuesday, July 27.

Instead of going into detail, he left this to the spokesman for the anti-prostitution commission. "Please just ask the public relations, yes," he said.

Based on the statement made by Hotman, Albertina is said to have participated in supervising the draft Decree Number 65 which caused dozens of employees to be disabled. So, he is not surprised that reports of alleged ethical violations in the implementation of TWK were rejected and declared insufficient evidence.

"So of course the Supervisory Board will not proceed to the ethics trial, because the Supervisory Board is involved in the TWK process," said Hotman on Saturday, July 24.

It was previously reported that the KPK Supervisory Board did not continue the reports of representatives of 75 employees to the ethics trial for alleged violations by the KPK leadership. The reason, they did not find sufficient evidence.

In addition, the council also assessed that the employee's report regarding the alleged violation, which consisted of seven materials, was not basic and unclear. Including, related to the insertion of the TWK implementation rules that were allegedly carried out by the Chairman of the KPK, Firli Bahuri.

The findings of the KPK Supervisory Board are different from the results of the work of the Indonesian Ombudsman delivered on Wednesday, July 21.

According to the Ombudsman, the insertion of the paragraph on the implementation of the TWK occurred when the commission's regulations were being discussed. This is because this clause only appeared on January 25, 2021 or the day before the last harmonization meeting.

Even though the meeting to draft the commission's regulations has taken place since August 2020. "The emergence of the TWK clause is a form of insertion of a verse. The appearance of a new paragraph and it appears in the last months of this process," said Robert at a press conference to deliver the final results of the examination of KPK employee complaints which was broadcast. online, Wednesday, July 21.
