JAKARTA - Indonesia Calling (IM) 57+ Institute said Brigadier General Asep Guntur Rahayu's steps to resign as Acting Deputy for Enforcement and Execution and Director of KPK Investigation were honorable. Moreover, the head of the anti-corruption commission seemed to throw away the agency related to the polemic of hand arrest operations (OTT) at the National SAR Agency.
"The action of the Director of Investigation and the Acting Deputy for Enforcement who resigned because the leadership blamed the investigators as a very honorable act," said IM57+ Institute Chair M Praswad Nugraha in a written statement, Saturday, July 29.
Praswad said Asep was not the party that should be fully responsible for this polemic. The decision to determine the suspect is the KPK leadership.
However, Asep's move should have been a slap to Firli Bahuri and four other leaders. "It should have been answered that you shouldn't wash your hands as if this is the job of the investigative team alone," he said.
"KPK leaders should be ashamed of the actions taken by appearing to be hands off," continued Praswad.
The TNI Puspom previously expressed objections when the KPK named Henri along with the Kabasarnas Administrative Coordinator (Koorsmin) Lt. Col. Afri Budi Cahyanto as a suspect. This step is considered to have violated military rules. Furthermore, Deputy Chairperson of the KPK Johanis Tanak apologized for the determination. He said investigators and investigators made a mistake. Meanwhile, Henri was named a suspect in the aftermath of a hand arrest operation (OTT) in Cilangkap, Jakarta and Jatisampurna, Bekasi on Tuesday, July 24.
