JAKARTA - The Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) was asked to act immediately to investigate allegations of ethical violations committed by KPK Deputy Chair Lili Pintauli Siregar. This pressure arose after Lili allegedly received accommodation and tickets for the Mandalika MotoGP some time ago from PT Pertamina (Persero).
The Coordinator of the Indonesian Anti-Corruption Society (MAKI) Boyamin Saiman asked the KPK Supervisory Board led by Tumpak Hatorangan Panggabean et al to immediately move to investigate the alleged ethical violations committed by Lili. In fact, an ethics trial must be held immediately to maintain the authority of the anti-corruption commission.
"MAKI asks the KPK Council to immediately try the case of alleged violation of the code of ethics because the protracted case will further reduce the authority of the KPK which ultimately hinders the work of the KPK to eradicate corruption," Boyamin said in a written statement to reporters quoted on Tuesday, April 19. .
Not only MAKI, former KPK employees who are members of the Indonesia Calling (IM) 57+ Institute also urged the same thing. The chairman of the IM57+ Institute, Praswad Nugraha, said that Tumpak Hatorangan et al. should not view the alleged acceptance of gratification as an ordinary case.
He even asked that Lili be given a punishment in the form of dismissal if found guilty of accepting gratification in the form of accommodation and MotoGP tickets. This is because this is not the first time that the former Deputy Chairperson of the LPSK has violated ethics.
Previously, Lili was found guilty of communicating with litigants at the KPK, namely the former Mayor of Tanjungbalai M Syahrial who was involved in the bribery case of buying and selling positions. As a result of his actions, he was sentenced to a 12-month salary cut of 40 percent.
"If the report on the violation of the receipt of the MotoGP ticket is proven to be true, then the Dewas must see that this is a repeated act, and the sanction of the dismissal of Lily as one of the KPK leaders must be imposed," said Praswad in a written statement to reporters.
Praswad also considered that the application of this strict punishment needed to be done in order to maintain ethical standards for the anti-corruption commission personnel. Do not let it, he continued, later the KPK employees would imitate their leaders because of the permissive attitude of the Supervisory Board.
"The repeated permissive actions of the Council on violations of the KPK leadership will damage the mentality of all KPK employees down to the level of investigators and implementers in the field," he said.
"Employees will imitate the actions of their leaders who repeatedly violate the code of ethics but are still fine," added Praswad.
Then where is the process of investigating the alleged ethical violation committed by Lili?
Member of the Supervisory Board of the KPK, Syamsuddin Haris, said that his party was currently collecting information, materials, and information from related parties regarding Lili's acceptance of gratification. Including, will ask for information from PT Pertamina (Persero) which is suspected of providing accommodation and tickets to Lili.
"Currently, the Dewas is still in the stage of gathering information, materials, and statements from related parties who are suspected of knowing and possessing information about alleged ethical violations committed by the IDIC's mother," Syamsuddin told reporters in a written statement.
Syamsuddin said his party would certainly investigate this allegation to the fullest. He also made sure that nothing was covered up in the investigation of this ethical violation.
Not only that, Syamsuddin also asked all related parties to cooperate and cooperate with the KPK Supervisory Board. Thus, the investigation process for this alleged ethical violation can immediately clarify the issue.
"Dewas hopes that related parties, including Pertamina and its subsidiaries, can cooperate and be cooperative, namely by providing true and honest information regarding the information they know," he concluded.
