progresifjaya.id, JAKARTA – The Central Leadership Council of the Corruption Investigation Committee (DPP CIC) strongly condemns the narrative of social media content that links the name of the Kapolda Metro Jaya, Irjen Pol Karyoto with the Pertamina fuel blending corruption case.
As is known, several Tik Tok and Instagram contents have spread slanderous information stating that there is a flow of funds of Rp25 billion per month received by Irjen Pol Karyoto for securing Pertamina’s fuel blending. In the eyes of the DPP CIC, this information is baseless and very illogical to accept.
“We strongly condemn the slanderous content on Tik Tok and Instagram that accuses the Kapolda Metro Jaya, Irjen Pol Karyoto of being involved in the Pertamina fuel blending case,” emphasized the General Chairperson of the DPP CIC, Raden Bambang SS to reporters, Friday, (7/3) yesterday.
According to him, in this case he suspects that there are indeed parties who deliberately played this case to bring down the integrity of Kapolda Karyoto. The motives are diverse but the end result is the same, namely wanting to thwart the general’s career progress. Moreover, the exchange for candidates for the Kapolri to replace Jenderal Pol Listyo Sigit Prabowo will also heat up soon.
“The effort to bring down the integrity of Irjen Pol Karyoto is too dirty to the point of being unreasonable. What is the correlation between the fuel blending case that occurred in Papua and South Sumatra with the authority of Irjen Pol Karyoto which is only limited to Jadetabek. “It’s already illogical to accept and understand,” said Raden Bambang.
He also said, that the Cyber Investigation Directorate of the Polda Metro Jaya must immediately conduct an investigation and hunt down the perpetrators. This aims to reduce the commotion caused by the slanderous information.
“Please be creative but don’t be careless. This slanderous information must be clarified and ended immediately. We strongly condemn the mastermind behind this information. No matter who he is and what his status is. He what a dirty, cunning, sly and cowardly human being,” he snapped again.
In line with Raden Bambang from the DPP CIC, a similar statement was also made by the Chairman of the Presidium of the Transparency Society Committee (KMT), Abu Yazid. According to him, the mastermind behind this slanderous information deliberately acted to confuse the government and the public’s minds regarding the existence and integrity of Irjen Pol Karyoto as the Kapolda Metro Jaya. The ultimate goal of this act, he continued, will lead to the Kapolri candidate exchange where the mastermind wants to thwart Kapolda Karyoto from entering the exchange.
“In my opinion, Irjen Pol Karyoto has a very big chance of becoming Kapolri. His track record as Kapolda Metro Jaya for almost 2 years and as Deputy for Enforcement of the KPK for almost 3 years can be a reference,” said Abu Yazid.
“Moreover, he also just retired in October next year and it is easy to make him a three-star before becoming a four-star if the President has chosen him as the next Kapolri. It is possible that this has been read by the mastermind of the slanderous information. That is why the commotion was deliberately created to confuse the President and the public so that support for him to become Kapolri is lost a lot. Truly cursed,” he added again emphasizing. (Bembo)
