DRUG ABUSE: Police officers fired directly from their members, police officers carrying a shabu
The Indonesian National Police (Polri) removed the Deputy Director of the West Kalimantan Regional Police Narcotics Commission, AKBP Harton, and after being caught carrying shabu at Soekarno-Hatta Airport, Tangerang, Saturday (07/28/2018).
And according to the Head of the Public Information Bureau of the National Public Relations Division, Brigadier General M Iqbal said that investigators from the National Police Headquarters Division were still carrying out the following checks to process violations of the professional code of ethics carried out by these police officers.
The examination will focus on possession of methamphetamine and also the reason for the arrival of AKBP Hartono to Jakarta.
And "We're dealing with the relationship. Is concerned involved any network, "said Iqbal, quoting VIVA, Monday (07/30/2010).
Iqbal stressed that if proven guilty, then the Police would take firm action against the person concerned. "The police are firm on individual members of the National Police who commit any violation or criminal offense," said Iqbal, quoting AFP on Sunday (07/29/2018).
And the decision to dismiss AKBP Hartono's position as the West Kalimantan Police Narcotics Deputy was stated in a telegram letter numbered ST / 1855 / VII / KEP / 2018 dated July 28, 2018 signed by the Human Resources Assistant of the National Police Chief Inspector General Arief Sulistyanto, representing National Police Chief Gen. Tito Karnavian.
In the letter also stated that, AKBP Hartono would then be transferred as a middle officer at the National Police Headquarters Service (Yanma).
AKBP Hartono was caught red-handed carrying 12 grams of shabu by Avsec officer at Terminal 1A of Soekarno-Hatta Airport, Tangerang, on Saturday (28/7/2018).
Initially also AKBP Hartono argued the drug he brought it is the evidence that will be tested in the laboratory in Jakarta. However, AKBP Hartono failed to show a letter of assignment that strengthened his alibi.
"According to the statement, he went to Jakarta in order to carry out his duties, but he actually did not, and without permission came there," said Head of West Kalimantan Regional Public Relations, AKBP Nanang Purnomo, quoting Antaranews.
AKBP Nanang also admitted that he did not know AKBP Hartono. Throughout his knowledge, before serving as Deputy Detective of the West Kalimantan Police Narcotics, AKBP Hartono had served as police chief in the Sulawesi region.
"During the six months of carrying out duties in the West Kalimantan Regional Police, we still have not found a bad record," continued AKBP Nanang.
Last April, National Police Chief Gen. Tito Karnavian once firmly stated that his party was not playing with drug abuse. In fact, the death penalty was not permitted for police who were proven to be involved as dealers or dealers.
Tito reasoned, in an effort to fight the drug network needed a solidarity between the TNI, the National Police and the National Narcotics Agency (BNN).
Indonesia Police Watch (IPW) once mentioned, in 2016 the number of police officers involved in drugs reached more than 200 people.
And all this time, there is a tendency for police members who are involved in drugs to receive mild punishment, so that justice becomes lame and the deterrent effect is not created.
"It is time for members of the National Police to play or get involved in drugs to be sentenced to death. And the aim is that there is a deterrent effect and drug abuse is not widespread in the police environment," said Chairman of the IPW Presidium, Neta S. Pane.
In the 72nd celebration of Bhayangkara, July 11, 2018, the Chair of the House of Representatives (DPR) Bambang Soesatyo requested that the internal reform agenda of the National Police continue well.
And according to the man who is familiarly called Bamsoet, the dedication of the Indonesian National Police in realizing security and public order has received high appreciation from the public.
This refers to the entry of Indonesia into the list of 10 safest countries according to Gallup's Law and Order Report 2018 survey.
"Even though the public's love and sympathy curve for the National Police continues to improve, General Tito's work has not yet been completed. So the Public noted that there were still individual police officers behaving deviantly, "said Bamsoet.
