JAKARTA - The Indonesian General Elections Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu) handled 43 reports of disputes over the general election process in candidates for legislative members with the General Election Commission (KPU). Chairman of the Indonesian Bawaslu Rahmat Bagja said this report was recorded after the determination of the list of candidates for members of the DPR, DPD, provincial DPRD, and district/city DPRD. "Bawaslu handled as many as 43 requests for dispute resolution of the general election process. The number consisted of four requests for resolving disputes over candidates for DPD members, three requests for dispute over candidates for provincial DPRD members, and 36 requests for dispute over candidates for district/city DPRD members," Bagja said in his statement, Friday, November 17. Based on Article 95, Article 99, and Article 103 of Law Number 17 of 2017 concerning General Elections, Bawaslu, Provincial Bawaslu, and Bawaslu Regencies/cities have the authority to accept, examine, mediate or mediate, and decide the settlement of disputes over the election process. Bawaslu, Provincial Bawaslu, and Regency/City Bawaslu examined and decided on a dispute over the election process no later than 12 days after the request for settlement of election process disputes was received after the determination of DCT on November 3, 2023. Based on the distribution, requests for dispute resolution for candidates for Provincial DPRD members and Regency/City DPRD are spread across 19 provinces. "Provinces with the highest number of applications are Southeast Sulawesi with six applications, Papua with six applications, East Java with four applications, and West Java with three applications," said Bagja. Of the 43 applications for election process disputes that came in, at the verification stage there were 33 applications registered, nine applications could not be registered, and one application could not be accepted. "Meanwhile, in the next stage, there are 15 applications that agree to mediation and settlement as many as 18 applications are included in the adjudication process," explained Bagja. Furthermore, Bagja revealed, Bawaslu's decision regarding the resolution of election process disputes is a final and binding decision, except for decisions on election process disputes related to verification of political parties participating in the election; determination of the list of permanent candidates for members of the DPR, DPD, provincial DPRD, and district/city DPRD; and determination of candidate pairs.
Then, if the Bawaslu decision is not accepted by the litigants, then the parties can file a legal action to the State Administrative Court (PTUN). "The submission of a lawsuit against the Election Administrative Court dispute is carried out no later than five working days after the reading of the Bawaslu decision," said Bagja.
