The Honorary Council of General Election Organizers (DKPP) has imposed sanctions in the form of dismissal of office to the Chairman of the General Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu) of Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi (Sultra) Abdulan and his members Restu.

"DKPP concluded that DKPP has the authority to try complainant complaints, as well as defendant I (Restu) and defendant II (Abdulan) were proven to have violated the code of ethics and code of conduct of election organizers," said Heddy Lugito as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, November 19.

He mentioned that in the decision, his party granted the complainant's complaint for some, including imposing the last tough warning sanction and dismissal from the chairman position to Abdulan as Chairman of Bawaslu Konawe.
