Brigadier General Endar Priantoro (ANTARA)

JAKARTA - The Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said there had been no follow-up to the alleged violation that allegedly occurred when Brigadier General Endar Priantoro was stopped as Director of Investigation. The reason is that they are still on Eid leave.

"Not yet (there is a decision, ed). Some of the KPK Councils are still on Eid leave," KPK Supervisory Board member Syamsuddin Haris told reporters, Thursday, April 27.

Even so, the KPK Supervisory Board confirmed that it would still summon several parties to clarify the allegations reported by Endar. However, Syamsuddin did not elaborate further regarding the examination.

"There is still an examination but there is no suitable time yet," he said.

As previously reported, Endar was honorably dismissed from the position of Director of Investigation on March 31 after he was returned to the National Police. However, the Bhayangkara Corps member was instead asked to return to the KPK according to the orders of the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo.

As a result of this incident, he reported KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri and KPK Secretary General Cahya H. Harefa to the KPK Supervisory Board. In addition, Endar also reported other alleged violations such as leaking documents for investigating alleged corruption at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources to forcing the manufacture of documents even though the title of the case or exposure had not been carried out.

Not only that, Endar also reported the leadership, Secretary General, and Head of the KPK HR Bureau to the Indonesian Ombudsman. He suspects that maladministration occurred when he was dismissed as Director of Investigation of the KPK.
