MAKASSAR - Bawaslu of Makassar City, South Sulawesi delegated the ASN neutrality case related to the Makassar Pilkada to the State Civil Apparatus Commission (KASN). The Secretary of the Head of Ujung Tanah Sub-district, Andi Syaiful, is suspected of violating neutrality because of an invitation to support certain candidates in the Makassar Pilkada.

"We have sent it to KASN, so the follow-up is to suspect neutrality," Sri Wahyuni, the coordinator of the Makassar Bawaslu Enforcement and Abuse Handling Division, told VOI, Tuesday, November 17.

Bawaslu submitted the case after it was found that there were elements of violations committed by the Secretary of the Head of the Ujung Tanah Sub-district, Andi Syaiful.

"For ASN neutrality, we consider that there is a violation, so we continue to KASN," he continued.

According to him, as an ASN, the Secretary of the Ujung Tanah Sub-district does not need to invite honorarium to support certain candidate pairs in the Makassar Pilkada.

"So it is a personal action as the Secretary of State, related to orders from the governor and the acting mayor. We did not find the case up to that point. He (Sekcam) also admitted that he admitted that the voice was his voice," said Sri Wahyuni.

The Makassar Bawaslu previously clarified the Secretary of the Ujung Tanah Sub-district Head Andi Syaiful. Andi Syaiful was asked for information regarding the voice recording allegedly asking the honorary to support one of the candidate pairs in the Makassar Pilkada.

Sri Wahyuni said that Bawaslu had invited a number of witnesses to clarify the 10-minute, 22-second video recording. However, Bawaslu has not yet revealed the results of the clarification which were conveyed by the witnesses.

"We have invited a lot, if the case was yesterday, there were already more or less 10," he continued.

Previously the recording went viral via the WhatsApp group, Wednesday, November 4. The voice was suspected to be the Secretary of the Ujung Tanah District.

In the voice recording, he asked the honorary staff, the sub-district Voting Committee Group (KKPS), the Polling Station (TPS) officer and the Ujung Tanah District Supervisory Committee (Panwas) to support one of the candidate pairs in the Makassar Pilkada.

Not only that, this person suspected of being ASN admitted that he did this by claiming direct orders from the head of the sub-district, the mayor to the governor of South Sulawesi.

It is suspected that the ASN threatened to fire and impose sanctions on honorary staff who did not carry out the ultimatum of the camat, namely supporting certain candidates in the Makassar Pilkada.
