JAKARTA - The mass demonstration from the Constitutional Rescue Alliance (APK) gave a black coffin to the General Election Commission (KPU) of the Republic of Indonesia, Jalan Imam Bonjol, Menteng District, Central Jakarta, Monday, November 13.

The corpse fine with the words "RIP Justice and Democracy" was placed on the barricades of the black and white "Zonebar" guardrail. The laying of the coffin above the barricade fence is a form of mourning mass for the KPU.

"The President's son harassed the Constitutional Court. The politics is dynastic," said one of the orators from the top of the command car on Jalan Imam Bonjol, Menteng, Central Jakarta, Monday, November 13.

Orator also said that Gibran's candidacy as a vice presidential candidate was a form of KKN.

"The KPU must revoke the registration of the Vice Presidential Candidate Prabowo Gibran, who is legally flawed," he said.

"To the KPU, we ask that our demands be realized," he added.
