Jakarta (B2B) - The Indonesian Police Headquarters has filed a pre-trial suit against the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) for naming police chief hopeful Commr. Gen. Budi Gunawan suspect in a graft case.
"With it (suit), the National Police have taken a critical stand. It is also an act of protecting a police member through a legal channel," chief of the National Polices public relations division Insp. Gen. Ronny F. Sompie said here on Tuesday.
Sompie noted that the police had several discussions with law experts while preparing the suit.
Chief of the National Polices law division Insp. Gen. Moechgiyarto confirmed that the police filed a pre-trial suit with the South Jakarta district court against the KPK on Monday (January 19).
"It is true that we filed a suit with the South Jakarta district court yesterday," he said in a short message text.
On January 13, the KPK named Commr. Gen. Budi Gunawan a graft suspect in connection with certain rewards he allegedly received through suspicious transactions.
The KPK alleged that Budi Gunawan received the rewards while he was chief of the National Police Headquarters career development bureau between 2003 and 2006 and held other posts at the National Police Headquarters.
President Joko then postponed the inauguration of Budi Gunawan as national police chief to give him a chance to resolve the legal case.
On January 16, President Jokowi issued two decrees dismissing Gen. Sutarman as national police chief and appointing Deputy Police Chief Commr. Gen. Badrodin Haiti as acting national police chief.
