MAKASSAR - A number of institutions joined in the anti-corruption civil society coalition held a ritual to reject disaster reinforcements as a form of criticism and concern over the dismissal of dozens of KPK employees. The protest against reinforcements was held in front of the Makassar Legal Aid Institute (LBH), South Sulawesi.
"This action is in support of our support for the dismissal of KPK employees, because it is considered not according to the existing rules according to the decisions of the Supreme Court, Constitutional Court, Ombudsman, and Komnas HAM," said Head of the Civil and Political Rights Division of LBH Makassar Andi Haerul Karim quoted by Antara, Thursday, September 30 evening.
Haerul explained, for the people of South Sulawesi, to refuse reinforcements, the aim was to make the disaster disappear immediately. In addition, the hope is that the 57 KPK employees who were fired can return to work. Because, they are considered as employees with integrity to eradicate corruption in Indonesia.
Haerul said that the resolution of polemics at the KPK could only be done by President Joko Widodo, who has the highest mandate in issuing decisions. Therefore, the public's hope regarding the eradication of corruption must be immediately returned to its rails.
"As I said earlier, there has been a decision. So there is no reason for the President to act immediately. Because based on the KPK Law, the decision is in the realm of the executive, and the President is the highest leader of the executive and the KPK at this time," he stressed.
His party hopes that the KPK leadership will immediately end the polemic that is currently developing to the public, so that the corruption eradication agenda can return to running as before.
The action was also filled with making murals criticizing the current condition of the KPK. There were even 23 points of attitude statement read by representatives of the Sulawesi Anti Corruption Committee (ACC) including the decisions of the Supreme Court, the Constitutional Court, Komnas HAM and the Ombudsman regarding the dismissal decision on the basis of not passing the National Insight Test (TWK).
Another point is the efforts to follow up on the recommendations issued by legal institutions, including asking the president to ensure that the law enforcement process runs well at the KPK.
In addition to the ritual of rejecting reinforcements and reading statements of attitude, an emergency corruption eradication office was also opened in front of the YLBHI LBH Makassar office in the form of a banner as an allegation of the alleged weakening of the handling of corruption in Indonesia.
