KASN issued a recommendation after they found violations committed by the Jakarta administration for dismissing 16 city officials of echelon II. KASN gave a deadline period of 30 working days and one week to comply with the findings.
Suwandi mentioned the city administration had followed through with several recommendations. A total of eight officials were retired, assigned in the same position, or quitted to run as a legislative candidate. “But fail to concern on the other eight officials,” he added.
Suwandi explained the report sent to the President noted the chronology of the reshuffle and the dismissal letters ratified by the governor.
The authority to give a sanction for Anies Baswedan belongs to President Jokowi. “We file a report as it is,” Suwandi said.
