DKPP Has Not Received KPU Report On Deactivation Of 7 Members Of PPLN Kuala Lumpur
Chairman of the Election Organizers Honorary Council (DKPP) Heddy Lugito said he had not received a report from the General Elections Commission (KPU) which had temporarily disabled or temporarily suspended seven members of the Kuala Lumpur Foreign Election Committee (PPLN), Malaysia.
"Until now, DKPP has not received the successor to the complaint or report from the Indonesian KPU as the boss of PPLN Kuala Lumpur which has been temporarily dismissed," said Heddy as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, March 5.
If his party has received the report, DKPP will handle it according to existing procedures.
"After the successor is received, the DKPP will handle it in accordance with applicable procedures and mechanisms," he said.
Previously, KPU Chairman Hasyim Asy'ari admitted that he had disabled seven PPLN members in Kuala Lumpur due to problems in collecting voter data which resulted in the re-voting of postal methods and mobile ballot boxes (KSK) having to be repeated.
"We have temporarily disabled or suspended seven PPLN members because there are problems in election governance in Kuala Lumpur," said Hasyim.
Meanwhile, KPU Mochammad Afifuddin said that the dismissal of seven members of PPLN Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, must go through the Honorary Council of Election Organizers (DKPP).
This follows the determination of seven members of PPLN Kuala Lumpur as suspects in the alleged election crime related to the addition of the number of voters by the Directorate of General Crimes (Dittipidum) of the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police.
"Yes, the permanent dismissal must go through the DKPP," Afif said when contacted in Jakarta, Thursday.
With the appointment of seven PPLN members with suspect status, he said, the KPU would take steps to proceed to DKPP.
