MK to KPK: Ignore the regulation on interception

by Blogger Indonesia

KPK must not obey regulation on interception, said MK (Constitutional Court) chief, via JP

The government’s plan to issue a regulation on intercepting wiretapping did not apply to the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), since it had stronger powers, Constitutional Court chief Mahfud MD said Wednesday.

“The KPK does not have to obey the regulation because its authority is legalized by the 2002 KPK Law, which is on a higher regulatory level,” Mahfud said.

Mahfud said the law protected interception authority. He said the regulation could only rule a law article, not interception authority that was given to legal institutions.

“The regulation will likely breach the law if it regulates all interception systems,” he said.

    This hazing thing is getting a bit old. Leave it to the authority. I don’t trust them but May God accept their repentance after the whole scandals, conspiracy, and frauds.
