TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Dismissing four staffs who stole the documents of the appeal of the dispute of the result of the regional leader in Dogiyai Regency, Papua is not the end of the responsibility of the Constitutional Court (MK).


The investigation team that has been set up must complete its duties finding the motive and the people behind those four staff who have the biggest interest in the disappearance of the documents.


The disappearance of the documents was reveled after MK registrar, with unclear reasons ask the laws of the petitioner – candidate pair Markus Waine-Angkian Goo—to make a new power of attorney on the last day to complete the documents on 8 March.


MK’s stand that covered the incident is very regrettable, le alone by denying it has lost the documents, which eventually has to be admitted by MK Chief Arief Hidayat through a press conference on Wednesday last week.


This document stealing should not be taken lightly.


The appeal documents are important documents that determine the process of the trial.


What is more valuable is the information that it contains, which according to Article 31 of Law on MK, must contain the basis of the appeal as well as matters asked to be riled, which also accompanied by proof to support the appeal.


This information is very important for those involved in the dispute.


Why were the documents stolen and who were behind it become the task of the MK investigation team and the police to investigate.


For MK, the disclosing of the mastermind of this stealing case and to what extent the involvement of MK internal people is the beginning of the effort to the cleaning of the body of this state institution from the accusation of being the nest of court mafia.


To restore the dignity of MK as in institution that is trusted and reliable, the cleaning must be done in all aspects, from the low level staffs to the Constitutional Court judges.


The stealing of the documents can be one of many of the tips of the icebergs of the court mafia practices at MK.


The briber case implicating MK judge Patrialis Akbar, who was disrespectfully discharged not so long ago, is another example.


It is also correct if the push to MK Chairman to also involve KPK in eradicating the court mafia should also be directed to MK chairman.


The improvement of the document security system is the next task to be done by MK.


The place to store the documents should have security with multi-layered authorization.


The storing must also apply restricted access so those who do not have interest such as echelon IV officials who are appointed as sub-division of the public relations who do not have relations with the registrar jobs—cannot enter, let alone take the documents.


The review of the handling of the case, starting from the registration to the ruling must also be done.


The evaluation is needed to find the weakness of every step of the proses.


To the officials involved in every stage, evaluation and rotation must be done to cut off the network that has been built.


A crime may happen because there are opportunities to for the perpetrators.
