The National Police stated that they would hold a code of ethics commission hearing against Inspector General Teddy Minahasa after the criminal trial decision on the drug trafficking case that the two-star police officer is currently undergoing.

Head of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Inspector General Pol Dedi Prasetyo said his party was waiting for an inkrah criminal decision so that the ethics trial could be decided with all existing considerations. Including sanctions for dishonorable dismissal (PTDH).

"The ethics trial is still being carried out. However, the implementation is waiting for the criminal trial process in general to be more certain," said Dedi in Jakarta, Friday, March 3 morning, which was confiscated by Antara. The two-star general also asked all parties not to compare the Ferdy Sambo case which underwent an ethics trial before the trial. According to him, the cases of Ferdy Sambo and Teddy Minahasa are different, cannot be equated with one another. "The case is different (the case), so between case TM (Teddy Minahasa) and Sambo cannot be compared to apple to apple, it can't be," said Dedi. Dedi emphasized. Dedi was reluctant to explain in detail regarding the reasons for the differences in the ethics process Ferdy Sambo and Teddy Minahasa because it is under the authority of the Police Code of Ethics Commission (KKEP).

According to him, in carrying out the ethics trial, the commission judge held a preparatory meeting first. "So, it cannot be apple to apple, each case has its own characteristics, it has its own interpretation by the commission judge, which he has his own juridical reasons which can be accounted for by them," said Dedi.The ethics trial against Teddy Minahasa will be carried out as well as the ethics trial against Bharada Richard Totaling Pudihang Lumiu who was tried for ethics after the criminal decision was signed. "Later wait for the legal process to be completed first, don't make assumptions. The criminal process is finished first, just like totaling that not being announced immediately," said Dedi. Meanwhile, member of the National Police Commission (Kompolnas) Poengky Indarti said that Teddy Minahasa deserves to be subject to PTDH sanctions for ethical violations committed related to drug crimes. "The case of alleged drug crimes is sufficient for PTDH, let alone coupled with allegations of infidelity," said Poengky. Poengky also mentioned one of the considerations of the KKEP trial against members of the National Police who committed criminal acts after an inkrah crime decision because the criminal trial requires a fast process considering that there is a time limit for detention. "So, the KKEP trial will be held after the criminal trial is over, it is possible that after the criminal case has permanent legal force. We'll just have to wait, yes," he said.
