KEWENANGAN KOMISI PEMBERANTASAN KORUPSI DALAM PENYIDIKAN KASUS SIMOLATOR SIM (KAPOLRI VS KPK)
Abstract: The research is
aimed at finding out which institution, the Corruption Eradication Commission
(KPK) or the Indonesian National Police (POLRI), actually has the authority to
conduct investigations in the driving simulator case because both institutions
stated that they had the authority. This research uses a normative approach
supported by legal approach and case study. The type of data is secondary data.
The data sources include primary legal materials, secondary legal materials,
and tertiary legal materials. The research finding is that according to Law
No.30 Year 2002 on Corruption Eradication Commission, Article 50, the
Corruption Eradication Commission has the authority to conduct investigations.
This authority is also strengthened by the statement of President Susilo
Bambang Yudhoyono. To settle the dispute between KPK and POLRI, the President
stated in his speech on 8 October 2012 that the driving simulator case
involving Inspector General Djoko Susilo should be handled by KPK. Moreover,
considering the Memorandum of Understanding among Corruption Eradication
Commission, Indonesian National Police, and Attorney General, the authority
should be given to KPK.
