JAKARTA - The handling of the murder case of Brigadier Nofriansyah Yosua Hutabarat or Brigadier J involving Inspector General Ferdy Sambo as a suspect is on the right track.
This was conveyed by the Chairperson of the SETARA Institute Hendardi in response to the results of the hearing meeting of the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo with Commission III of the DPR on Wednesday (25/8).
"Broadly speaking, the explanation from the National Police Chief in responding to various questions shows that the handling of the FS (Ferdy Sambo) case is already on the rights track so that the impetus for accelerating the delegation and trial can end the turmoil within the police," said Hendardi in a written statement quoted by ANTARA, Thursday. , August 25.
He said that the presence of the National Police Chief who was accompanied by a main Police official at a working meeting with Commission III of the House of Representatives dismissed various public doubts about the solidity of the Police as a result of the continuation of the Ferdy Sambo case, including examining 97 members of the National Police.
Although on the one hand it creates new tensions due to the smell of contestation and factionalization within the Indonesian National Police, Hendardi said that the prosecution of a number of members of the National Police in accordance with their level of involvement demonstrates the effectiveness of the steps and leadership of the National Police Chief by taking control of the handling of the Ferdy Sambo case as well as the agenda for restoring public trust.
The former member of the selection committee for the KPK leadership candidate also underlined the strong political support from the parliament for Polri reform. A number of DPR members also reminded the importance of accelerating the handling of Polri members who are considered to have violated the code of ethics.
"Including the clearance statement from the National Police Chief for a number of members who have been examined, but are not actually involved," he said.
"The internal consolidation of the National Police on new, holistic repair roads can be accelerated," he continued.
According to Hendardi, after all precision steps have been taken in responding to the turmoil within the National Police, the next urgent task for the National Police Chief is to draw up further strategic steps as part of the Police reform agenda, which he considers to have long been suspended and lost direction.
He said that the improvement of the National Police had been more dependent on the leadership of the National Police Chief who served without a holistic and sustainable design, and there were no policy products that described the National Police's reform design to the government and the DPR as law makers as well as Polri partners.
"Polri reformation solely relies on the internal rules of the National Police, which are binding, the level of compliance and accountability for their performance is difficult to measure and difficult for the public to access," he said.
With the wide scope of his mandate in maintaining security, protecting and nurturing the community, to the task of law enforcement as referred to in Law Number 2 of 2002 concerning the National Police, Hendardi considered that formulating a detailed agenda for the Police reform is an actual need.
"That way, some facts and allegations about problems within the National Police as well as public aspirations so that the Police are more accountable can be answered," he said.
Hendardi said that several agendas that emerged after the Ferdy Sambo case related to the murder of Brigadier J must be recorded and reformulated, including matters of official school administration, strengthening the role of the National Police Commission (Kompolnas), qualifications for membership in the Profession and Security Body of the Indonesian National Police (Propam Polri).
Then, the disparity in handling and treatment of cases, the submission of the National Police to civilian supremacy, character building of the civilian police, deconstruction of the Police culture, transparency and accountability of investigations, and so on.
"Police reform must become a broad public agenda so that it is able to capture the majority of the people's voices, the quiet voices of the victims, and the legal constitutional mandate of the existence of the Police as protectors, protectors and law enforcers," he said.
