The National Police appointed five generals as judges at the Police Code of Ethics Commission (KKEP) trial for alleged violators of Inspector General Teddy Minahasa. One of them is the Head of Intelligence and Security, Komjen Wahyu Widada. "Chairman of Commission Komjen Wahyu Widada and Deputy Chairman of Commission Inspector General Tornagogo Sihombing," said Karo Penmas of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Brigadier General Ahmad Ramadhan to reporters in his statement, Tuesday, May 30. Then, there were three generals who became members of the KKEP trial commission. They include Inspector General Syahardiantono, Inspector General Asep Edi Suheri, and Inspector General Rudolf Alberth Rodja. During the trial, dozens of witnesses and experts will be presented. Their statements will be listened to to determine the fate of Inspector General Teddy Minahasa at the Bhayangkara Corps. "There are 13 witnesses in the trial and 1 expert," said Ramadhan. Inspector General Teddy Minahasa had to undergo a KKEP trial because he was involved in a case of narcotics trafficking of methamphetamine. The internal police court process has started at 09.00 WIB. The former West Sumatra Police Chief has been sentenced to life in prison. He is considered involved in cases of distribution and sale of methamphetamine which is evidence. Behind the verdict, the panel of judges had some burdensome considerations, ranging from taking advantage of his position to betray the President. "The defendant actually involved himself and his subordinates by utilizing his position in illicit narcotics trafficking so that he was very contradictory to his duties and responsibilities as Kapolda and did not reflect as a good law enforcement officer and protecting the community," said Chief Judge Jon Sarman Saragih. Then, Inspector General Teddy Minahasa was also considered not to admit his actions and was convoluted in giving information during the trial. In fact, the defendant Teddy Minahasa was considered to have enjoyed the sale of methamphetamine. His actions did not reflect the good members of the National Police.

Then, Teddy is considered to have betrayed the President of Indonesia and did not support the government's program to eradicate drug trafficking. "The defendant's actions as Kapolda have betrayed the President's orders in law enforcement and eradicating narcotics illicit trafficking," said Judge Jon.
