Jakarta – The National Police chief Gen. Bambang Hendarso Danuri has denied all speculations and assumptions related to his unclear absence over the past three days.
Bambang said that his absence in several important agendas over the weekend was because of his "limited ability as a human being." He, however, did not elaborate further.
"Some even said I was mysteriously missing, I committed suicide. So be it. I will just return all things that may have happened to God Almighty. Anything could happen to anyone," Bambang said Monday during a swearing-in ceremony of seven generals at the police headquarters in Jakarta, as quoted by kompas.com.
The ceremony was scheduled to be held last Friday. However, Bambang failed to show up without clear reasons.
There was a widespread speculation that Bambang was summoned by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. But it did not happen. He is reportedly under pressure following a string of high-profile problems at the institution.
