REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- National Police Chief General Tito Karnavian visited the office of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) to strengthen cooperation between the two law enforcement agencies.

"I have been in charge for one month only. The KPK colleagues wanted to visit the Police Headquarters. I then said (you) have frequently visited the headquarters, and in fact, I am the one who wants to go here," Karnavian stated at the KPK office here, Friday.

Karnavian was accompanied by Head of the Police's Crime Investigation Department (Bareskrim) Commissioner General Ari Dono, Deputy Head of Bareskrim Inspector General Arief Sulistyanto, and Police's spokesman Inspector General Boy Rafli Amar.

KPK Chairman Agus Rahardjo, Commissioner Saut Situmorang, and Basaria Panjaitan greeted the Police chief. "This visit aims to strengthen relations and enhance cooperation. We have prepared a draft MoU," Karnavian noted.

The MoU is expected to intensify cooperation between the KPK and Police. "In principle, the National Police and KPK support each other. We are ready to support the KPK's initiatives," he remarked.

Karnavian was also scheduled to hold a meeting with police investigators working for the KPK. "I will have an opportunity to talk to the investigators from the police here, as they are also my kids," he added.
