Brigadier General Endar Priantoro Balik Jadi Direktur Penyelidikan, Apa Alasan KPK?

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has welcomed Brigadier General Endar Priantoro to serve as Director of Investigation. The reason is because it is to maintain harmonization with the Police.

"With considerations, among others, to maintain harmonization and synergy between law enforcers in efforts to eradicate corruption," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri in his statement, Wednesday, July 5.

Endar's return to duty at the anti-corruption agency was based on the Change Decree (SK) issued on 27 June.

Confirmed separately, Endar emphasized that his return as Director of Investigation of the KPK was not due to acceptance in an open selection.

In addition, he plans to visit the KPK building this afternoon. The goal is to meet the commissioners.

"This afternoon we plan to meet the leadership," said Endar.

Originally, Endar was removed by KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri from his position last April. He was returned to the National Police institution.

Then, the position of Director of Investigation at that time was filled by temporary official Ronald Worotikan.

Not standing still, Endar took steps to fight back. He complained to the KPK Supervisory Board (Dewas) to the Ombudsman.
