Hearing on Immoral and Corruption Cases, MenPANRB Sanctions 34 Civil Servants: Some Dismissed
Minister for State Apparatus Utilization and Bureaucratic Reform (PANRB), Rini Widyantini, once again chaired a session of the Civil Servants Consideration Agency (BPASN) on Tuesday (12/5/2026).
In this hearing, BPASN addressed 34 cases of various violations committed by civil servants (ASN), both permanent civil servants (PNS) and non-permanent civil servants (PPPK), across ministries, institutions, and local governments.
“The government is taking firm action against violations committed by ASN by imposing sanctions commensurate with the level of violation, ranging from light, moderate, to severe sanctions in the form of dismissal as ASN,” said Rini in a press release on Wednesday (13/5/2026).
Of the total 34 cases heard, violations were dominated by 10 cases of absenteeism, followed by 7 cases of integrity violations, 6 cases of marriage and divorce permissions, 5 immorality cases, 5 criminal corruption cases, and 1 case of Voluntary Resignation with Honour (PDHAPS).
This latest hearing in 2026 is a continuation of sessions that have been ongoing since the beginning of the year. BPASN hearings serve as an administrative effort in the form of objections and administrative appeals for ASN who do not accept decisions made by Personnel Development Officials (PPK) or other authorised officials.
The outcomes of BPASN decisions can strengthen, lighten, aggravate, alter, or cancel PPK decisions.
In the January-March 2026 period, there were 69 violation cases committed by ASN, both PNS and PPPK, in ministries, institutions, and local governments. The hearings were conducted in two periods.
The first period addressed 36 cases, comprising 13 disciplinary violations of absenteeism, 6 integrity violations, 6 immorality cases, and 11 criminal corruption cases. The second hearing addressed 33 cases, including 15 disciplinary violations of absenteeism, 9 immorality cases, 5 integrity violations, and 4 criminal corruption cases.
Based on the results of these two hearings, 58 cases were decided to result in dismissal from ASN status, thereby strengthening the decisions of the Personnel Development Officials (PPK).
