List of Serious Charges Against Former Bima Police Chief AKBP Didik Leading to Dishonourable Discharge
Jakarta, VIVA – The fate of AKBP Didik Putra Kuncoro has been definitively sealed within the Indonesian National Police. The former Bima City police chief was officially dishonourably discharged after the Police Code of Ethics Commission (KKEP) hearing at National Police Headquarters in South Jakarta on Thursday, 19 February 2026, found him guilty of committing serious violations.

He also violated Article 8 letter c point 1 of Police Regulation No. 7 of 2022, which requires every police official under Personal Ethics to comply with and respect legal norms.
Additionally, he breached Article 10 Paragraph (1) letter d of the same regulation, which prohibits every police official under Institutional Ethics from abusing authority in carrying out official duties.
He further violated Article 10 Paragraph (1) letter f, which prohibits every police official under Institutional Ethics from conspiring to commit violations of the Professional Code of Ethics, disciplinary breaches, or criminal offences.
