4. Requesting the Special Inspectorate to examine the alleged ethical violation of every member of the police involved and impose sanctions on members of the police who are proven to have committed Obstruction of Justice in handling and disclosing the incident of Brigadier J's death in accordance with Police Regulation Number 7 of 2022 concerning the Code of Professional Ethics and the Commission Code of Ethics of the Indonesian National Police.
