progresifjaya.co.id, JAKARTA – The identity of the individual referred to by the Kapolri, Jenderal Pol Suyudi Ario Seto, before Commission III of the House of Representatives (DPR RI) as Brigjen Pol TK
remains a mystery. However, rumors circulating on social media suggest that the person in question is Brigjen Pol Muhammad Tedjo Kusumo.

He is identified as a high-ranking Polri officer whose name has been widely linked to the initials TK in connection with an alleged illegal wiretapping case. Brigjen Pol Muhammad Tedjo Kusumo is a high-ranking officer within the Security Maintenance Agency (Baharkam) of the Polri, currently assigned to the Authority Body for the Management of the North Coast of Java (BOPPJ).

This assignment was formalized in the Kapolri’s Telegram Letter Number ST/2251/X/KEP./2026, issued on October 10, 2026. Previously, he served as the Director of Intelligence (Dirintel) for the Polri’s Densus 88 Counter-Terrorism Unit.

A one-star general and a member of the 1999 Police Academy (Akpol) graduating class—specifically the Endra Dharmalaksana battalion—he previously held positions as the Head of the Central Java Regional Task Force for Densus 88 and as the Director of Enforcement for Densus 88. He also served as a member of the Polri’s reform transformation team.

He has also been reported to have led the surveillance operation targeting the Junior Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) at the Attorney General’s Office, Febrie Adriansyah, in May 2024.

Furthermore, in connection with the wiretapping case, he is alleged to have played a role in conducting surveillance activities linked to the controversy surrounding the suspected illegal wiretapping.

The Polri Headquarters has confirmed the involvement of a one-star general (Brigadier General) with the initials TK. His role—along with those of several other generals—is currently under investigation by the Polri’s internal affairs division.

Attempts to seek confirmation from the Head of the Public Relations Division of the Polri, Irjen Pol Johnny Eddizon Isir, have so far gone unanswered. (Bembo)
