JAKARTA - Former investigator of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Novel Baswedan said Agus Rahardjo wanted to resign as chairman of the KPK when handling the alleged corruption case of e-KTP.
Novel made this statement when he was told about Agus Rahardjo's confession, which President Joko Widodo or Jokowi had asked him to stop the case that ensnared former DPR Speaker Setya Novanto.
"In fact, Mr. Agus wanted to resign. So to stay in the commitment of the SN (Setya Novanto) case, Mr. Agus once wanted to resign," Novel told reporters, Friday, December 1.
However, Agus Rahardjo's intention to resign was not heard by Novel directly from the mouths of the Chairperson of the KPK for the 2015-2019 period.
It was said, it was heard from other KPK employees. Because, at that moment Novel was undergoing medical treatment in Singapore.
"Yes, the story is of course I'm not direct, right. Because I'm in Singapore and I'm taking a long time of treatment. So I heard the story from other KPK employees who told the story. So the one who knows better should be in the KPK," he said.
In fact, Novel emphasized that pressure often came when the KPK handled major corruption cases. However, the pressure was immediately directed at the leadership, not investigators.
"Usually if there is pressure on the leadership. If you go to the investigation, of course, it's not direct. Because investigators of course work according to the portion," said Novel.

Previously, Agus Rahardjo bluntly revealed that he had been summoned by Jokowi at the State Palace, Jakarta. It was later discovered that he was asked to stop the corruption case in the procurement of e-KTP which dragged former DPR Speaker Setya Novanto.
In Kompas TV's YouTube show, Agus said he had never revealed this incident. Initially, Rosiana Silalahi as the host asked whether or not the KPK's efforts were used as power tools and Agus said that he had been summoned alone before Jokowi when the investigation into the e-KTP corruption case was carried out.
"When my e-KTP case was summoned alone by the President and at that time accompanied by Mr. Pratikno (Minister of State Secretary). I am surprised that I usually call the five of them alone," Agus said in a broadcast quoted on Friday, December 1.
His arrival also seemed quiet because Agus did not pass in front of the reporters' room. "But through the door near the small mosque," he said.
When he entered the room, Agus found that President Jokowi had gone berserk.
"The president is angry, he wants it, because I just entered he has shouted'stop'. I wonder what was stopped," said Agus.
After he sat down, Agus finally received an explanation of Jokowi's statement that he was stopping the e-KTP case that dragged the name of Setya Novanto, who served as Chairman of the DPR. However, Agus Rahardjo said this could not be done because the investigation warrant (sprindik) had been issued.
"Sprindik itu, karena KPK tidak punya SP3 (Surat Pemberhentikan Penyidikan Perkara) tidak mungkin saya dihentikan, saya cancelkan," ujarnya.
Agus admitted that he did not care about President Jokowi's tantrum. He continued because when the KPK Law had not been revised, this institution was not directly under the head of state.
Agus also said that President Jokowi asked about the case file which he said had been issued, namely sprindik.
"The President also asked the Minister of State Secretary, Mr. Pratik, what is sprindik anyway?" he said imitating Jokowi's statement.
"So it happened at that time," he continued.
