The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) selection committee (Pansel) will submit eight names of proposed candidates to President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo on Tuesday at the Presidential Palace in Jakarta.
Since the registration opened on June 5, Pansel received more than 500 applications. The committee assessed the candidates and conducted track record investigations in cooperation with the National Police, the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK), the Attorney General’s Office, and the National Intelligence Agency (BIN).
The public was also invited to give direct input via Pansel’s official website.
In the final phase of the selection, 19 candidates were picked and went through health tests and a final interview.
Eight candidates proposed by Pansel will undergo the fit and proper test at the House of Representatives (DPR) Commission III overseeing legal affairs around the end of November or early December along with two candidates picked by a selection team set up by former president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono: former KPK commissioner Busyro Muqoddas and Cabinet Secretariat international relations division head Robby Arya Brata.
Five candidates will be chosen to replace five KPK heads whose term will end in December.
Earlier, Bareskrim chief Comr. Gen. Budi Waseso said the police had named one of the candidates a suspect in an alleged graft case. Pansel had received the report from Bareskrim and promised to remove the candidate from their list.
The submission of the report from Pansel was originally scheduled on Monday, but it was delayed due to Jokowi’s busy schedule. (kes)
