our comments on the rampant protests against the police who named two deputy leaders of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) suspects in a power abuse and bribery case.

If there is indeed a case, the protesters are absolutely right to speak out. It must, however, be proved, and their protests and the action of others will hopefully force the government to deal with the case appropriately.

Furthermore, the National Police's role as: judge, jury and executioner in this so-called modern nation, and the fact they are content to shoot dead any and all terror suspects without any effort to detain them, is another reason for a serious overhaul of police policies. Such protests should be taken seriously and people should not give up speaking up.

Give Anggodo a long jail sentence and a hefty fine. Teach him a lesson; he can surely afford to pay any amount. Close down all the companies he owns or has shares in, so other businessmen will be wary of working with corruptors.

As for the police, get rid of all the high-ranking officers, they don't deserve to be there. Mr. President, you have the tools to get rid of them: Just do it.

The Indonesian police never want to fight corruption because they are among the most corrupt institutions.

Surely this is not a problem that has arisen out of the blue. How come it was not foreseen and taken care of? Will someone please stand up and face us, the public. The Jakarta Post, please do your job by highlighting this issue.

We must ask why the police chief was going all out to oust the KPK leaders. What is he afraid of, unless he doesn't want to be caught with a dirty nose?

Won't it speed up the eradication of corruption, if the KPK and police work hand in hand instead of hand in glove.

Did the police chief want people to believe that he had taken good care of the case, when people could see there was clearly something wrong with it?

Excuse me, sir. The people are no longer that stupid. Right now is the Internet era, in which people can get news very easily.

The people are not illiterate any more, nor will they agree with whatever the authorities say.

Please be wise in leading people in this Internet and literate era.

Indonesian people don't trust the legal system, especially the leaders of the police and Attorney General's Office. That's why both must be fired.
