Kontras yang mengundang tanya, warga syok eks Kapolres Bima terjerat narkoba, dikenal rajin ibadah

News Summary:

• Former Bima City Police Chief Didik Putra Kuncoro’s neighbors were shocked by the legal cases against him.
• Neighbors had known Didik as a religious figure who regularly performed prayers.
• They never expected Didik Putra Kuncoro to be embroiled in a drug case, alleged receipt of illicit funds, and even sexual misconduct claims.

Teknowarta – The narcotics case implicating former Bima City Police Chief, AKBP Didik Putra Kuncoro, has sent shockwaves through his neighborhood, leaving residents stunned and disbelieving.

Many found it unimaginable that a figure known for his devout religious practices and piety within his community would suddenly be entangled in a severe drug case. Beyond the drug allegations, Didik is also implicated in the suspected receipt of billions of rupiah in illicit funds from a drug kingpin. Furthermore, allegations of sexual misconduct were even brought forward during his ethics trial, compounding the gravity of the accusations.

These shocking revelations have left residents of Taman Royal Arum Housing Complex in Poris Plawad Indah, Tangerang City, Banten, utterly surprised by the serious legal entanglement facing the high-ranking police officer. Didik and his family had resided in the area since 2018, following his previous tenure as the Deputy Police Chief of Tangerang before his transfer to West Nusa Tenggara (NTB).

The Once-Lively Luxury Home Now Silent

A recent observation on Friday, February 20, 2026, revealed Didik’s two-story home to be conspicuously quiet, devoid of any visible activity from its occupants. The only sign of life was a white cat on the terrace, while three motorcycles were parked in the yard, with no cars in sight.

According to Arief, the local neighborhood head (RW), Didik’s family maintained a private demeanor but had never caused any issues within the community. “When he was Deputy Police Chief, he often appeared at the mosque with his children. We thought he was a good, polite person. To find out… it’s very regrettable,” Arief remarked, reflecting the widespread disappointment.

Known for Religious Devotion and Generosity

Several residents attested to Didik’s consistent presence at the complex mosque, where he frequently performed congregational prayers alongside his children. Bahrun, a security guard in the complex, recalled a housewarming celebration when Didik first moved in. “We were invited to eat during the thanksgiving event. The security personnel were asked to briefly stop work and eat at his house,” Bahrun recounted, highlighting Didik’s apparent generosity.

Jangkung, a cleaner, also shared an experience of receiving a tip from the officer. “Sometimes, if I met him, he would give me money for coffee,” Jangkung stated. However, in recent times, Didik had reportedly become a rare sight in the neighborhood.

Alleged Monthly Bribes of IDR 400 Million

Kombes Zulkarnain Harahap, Head of Sub-directorate III for Drug Crimes at the National Police’s Criminal Investigation Agency, unveiled allegations of a systematic monthly bribery scheme that began in June 2025. It is suspected that AKP Malaungi, the Head of the Drug Unit, collected IDR 400 million monthly from a drug kingpin identified only as ‘B’.

Of this substantial sum, an alleged IDR 300 million was funneled to Didik, with the remaining IDR 100 million going to Malaungi. This illicit arrangement purportedly continued until a total of IDR 1.8 billion had been amassed before the scheme was exposed by NGOs and journalists. According to Zulkarnain, Didik subsequently pressured his subordinates to secure additional funds, threatening them with dismissal if they failed to comply.

Flow of Funds Totaling IDR 2.8 Billion

When the original drug dealer could no longer sustain the payments, Malaungi reportedly sought alternative sources of funding. This included an individual identified as Koh Erwin (KE), who allegedly pledged IDR 1 billion, with the remaining balance supposedly sourced from other networks. The total funds suspected to have been received by Didik amounted to a staggering IDR 2.8 billion, meticulously itemized as follows:

• IDR 1.4 billion concealed in a suitcase
• IDR 450 million in a paper bag
• IDR 1 billion stashed in a beer box
• An additional IDR 1 billion transferred through an account registered under another party’s name

The National Police Criminal Investigation Agency has since partnered with the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (PPATK) to thoroughly trace the complex flow of these funds.

Dismissed and Detained

Didik now faces charges as a suspect in two separate cases: alleged narcotics possession and the purported receipt of IDR 2.8 billion in illicit funds. Consequently, he has been handed a Dishonorable Discharge (PTDH) from the Indonesian National Police. “He has been dishonorably discharged as a member of the National Police,” confirmed Brigadier General Trunoyudo Wisnu Andiko, Head of the Public Information Bureau for the National Police’s Public Relations Division.

Prior to his full detention, Didik underwent a seven-day special placement (patsus) before being formally held at the Detention Center of the National Police Criminal Investigation Agency in Jakarta, starting Thursday, February 19, 2026.

A Stark Contrast Raising Questions

This unfolding case has left a profound sense of irony and bewilderment among local residents. The very individual once revered as diligent in worship and polite in demeanor now confronts severe legal proceedings over alleged involvement in drug crimes and the illicit flow of billions of rupiah. The once-vibrant family home now stands in silent testament to his downfall.

The community is left to grapple with the shocking reality, silenced by the dramatic fall from grace of a figure they previously knew as a paragon of religious virtue.
