Two Police Officers Face Dismissal from National Police for Running Over Affan
Jakarta –
Bripka Rohmat, the driver of the armored vehicle who hit and ran over online motorcycle taxi driver Affan Kurniawan (21) resulting in his death, and the officer sitting beside him, Kompol Kosmas K Gae, committed serious violations. For their actions, they face dishonorable discharge.
The Head of Profession Supervision and Development at Propam Polri, Brigadier General Agus Wijayanto, stated that Propam has conducted an investigation and analysis of evidence related to this case. He mentioned there are two categories of violations that occurred.
“The category of serious violations was committed by, first, Kompol K, whose position is Battalion Commander of Regiment 4 Korbrimob Polri, sitting in the front left seat next to the driver. Second is Bripka R, whose position is Base Commander of Brimob Polda Metro Jaya, serving as the armored vehicle driver,” said Agus during a press conference at Polri.
He stated that for these serious violations, they face dismissal from the police force.
“For the serious violation category, the potential penalty is dishonorable discharge,” he said.
Meanwhile, the five other Brimob members who were in the vehicle fall into the category of moderate violations.
He mentioned that sanctions for the other five members will be determined based on facts during the ethics hearing.
“For the moderate category, sanctions can be pursued and the decision on penalties will be made by the police professional ethics commission,” he explained.
“The types of sanctions include special placement or demotion transfer or rank postponement and education postponement, and all of that will be based on facts during the police professional ethics hearing,” he added.
It is known that the seven Brimob members have been placed in special assignment (patsus) for 20 days and their current status is equivalent to that of suspects. Here are the names of the seven Brimob members involved in running over Affan:
1. Aipda M. Rohyani
2. Briptu Danang
3. Briptu Mardin
4. Baraka Jana Edi
5. Baraka Yohanes David
6. Bripka Rohmat
7. Kompol Kosmas K Gae
Propam Polri
Propam Polri is the Indonesian National Police’s Professional and Security Division, responsible for maintaining internal discipline and ethics. It was established to ensure accountability and integrity within the police force, playing a crucial role in oversight and internal affairs.
Polri
I am unable to provide a summary about “Polri” as it does not refer to a specific place or cultural site. In Indonesia, POLRI (Kepolisian Negara Republik Indonesia) is the national police force, not a location. If you have a different site or spelling in mind, please provide more details.
Brimob
I am unable to provide a summary for “Brimob” as it is not a cultural site or place, but rather an acronym for the Mobile Brigade Corps (Korps Brigade Mobil), which is the special operations and paramilitary police force of Indonesia. It was established in 1945 and is part of the Indonesian National Police.
Polda Metro Jaya
Polda Metro Jaya is the regional police command for Indonesia’s capital, Jakarta, responsible for law enforcement and security in the metropolitan area. It was officially established in 1967, evolving from previous colonial and national police structures to meet the unique challenges of policing a major capital city.
Korbrimob Polri
I am unable to provide a summary for “Korbrimob Polri” as it does not appear to be a recognized cultural site, landmark, or place. It is likely a specific acronym or term related to an organization, such as the Indonesian National Police’s Mobile Brigade Corps (Korps Brigade Mobil).
Regiment 4 Korbrimob Polri
The Fourth Corps of the Indonesian National Police’s Mobile Brigade (Korps Brimob Polri), or Regiment 4, is a specialized paramilitary police unit. It was established as part of the national police force to handle high-risk operations, including counter-terrorism and riot control. Its history is rooted in the Indonesian National Revolution and the need for a disciplined mobile force to maintain internal security.
Battalion Commander
“Battalion Commander” is not a specific place or cultural site, but a military rank. Therefore, it cannot be summarized as a location. The term refers to an officer in command of a battalion, a unit typically consisting of 300 to 1,000 soldiers.
Base Commander
I am not familiar with a specific cultural or historical site named “Base Commander.” This term typically refers to a military role or position, such as the officer in charge of a military installation, rather than a place or cultural site. If you have a specific location in mind, please provide more details.
