JAKARTA - KPK investigator Novel Baswedan expressed concern about the KPK Supervisory Board (Dewas) being deceived when examining complaints of alleged ethical violations committed by KPK leaders in the process of changing employee status to State Civil Apparatus (ASN).

"I also think that because he (the Dewas member) is too senior, it is easy to be tricked by the examined parties. I'm afraid it's because from the Dewas answer, he and he act like a lawyer being investigated, this is a very serious matter in my opinion," said Novel in a virtual press conference in Jakarta, Saturday, July 24.

On Friday, July 23, the KPK Council through a press conference was unable to continue the report of KPK employees regarding alleged ethical violations committed by the KPK leadership regarding the implementation of the National Insight Test (TWK) to the ethics session due to insufficient evidence held by the KPK Council.

"It was as clear as his actions, as concrete as the evidence, but the response was lacking evidence, so the question is what's wrong with the Dewas? Does he or she not have the competence to carry out investigations or deepening? I'm not sure why," Novel said as reported by Antara.

Novel assessed that the points of the complaint of 24 KPK employees representing 75 employees who were declared Unqualified (TMS) after failing to pass the TWK were clear and clear. "The evidence is so real, so clear, but it's as if nothing happened. Of course we hope that in the future Dewas can improve himself, he is a very dedicated person. I have worked with him several times and Of course we hope we don't embarrass ourselves with that," Novel Baswedan added.

Novel personally admitted that he was saddened by the statement by the KPK Council, which had a different view on the reports and evidence submitted by the employees. "Dewans should work according to their duties and functions, namely supervision, but when something very big and serious is not visible, this is a big problem for Dewas, and if Dewas is in trouble, it is dangerous for the KPK and the fight against corruption in the future," Novel said.

He said that the Council was the only channel to complain about alleged ethical violations committed by leaders and employees at the KPK. "There is no other way and the Corruption Eradication Commission Board is the examiner, as well as the prosecution and the judges, so that's all there. When there is no other way, what else can be done? This is a serious problem," Novel added.

He is also worried that if the KPK Council does not work according to its function, it will add to other violations. "I'm afraid that this will make the KPK leadership even more daring to commit violations, why? Because the Council is very partial," Novel said.

Moreover, of the 75 employees declared by TMS, including investigators and investigators who are currently handling a number of cases of alleged corruption. "This is not a sudden accusation, but this is something that is easy to investigate. We will see that after we feel we have succeeded in weakening the KPK and the people who work well at the KPK, then the ongoing cases are also getting weaker, the demands are also getting lighter, the cases that are going on are getting weaker. There are many who do not investigate intellectual actors. We hope that all of this can be a concern because if that happens, it will be a loss for all of us, a loss for eradicating corruption, "explained Novel Baswedan.
