Not In The MD3 Law, The Constitutional Court's Decision Is Considered To Play With The Public

JAKARTA - Director of the Indonesian Parliamentary Center (IPC), Ahmad Hanafi, emphasized that the inactive decisions handed down by the House of Representatives Honorary Court (MKD) Eko Hendro Purnomo, Nafa Urbach and Ahmad Sahroni were not known in the law on the MPR, DPR, DPD and DPRD or MD3 Law.

"The inactive status is not in the MD3 Law, especially since this is considered inactive within months," he said, Sunday, November 9.

He revealed that the MD3 Law only recognizes decisions in the form of dismissal sanctions for council members who are proven to have violated ethics.

"Yes, the existing ones stopped because they could not carry out their duties or were dismissed," he continued.

Hanafi considers that the DPR MKD only wants to play the public and reduce people's turmoil through decisions taken against the three members of the DPR who are reported to have violated ethics. Moreover, it is wrapped through an open process to the public.

"This means that the public's demands are not responded to by policies honestly and openly by the DPR. It only reduces turmoil. People are deceived under the pretext of mechanisms," he said.

Seperti diketahui, Wakil Ketua MKD DPR, Adang Daradjatun membacakan putusan terhadap Eko Hendro Purnomo, Nafa Urbach dan Ahmad Sahroni yang dinyatakan terbukti melanggar etik. Ketiga anggota DPR tersebut dijatuhi sanksi penonaktifan mulai 3 hingga 6 bulan.

As is known, Deputy Chairperson of the DPR MKD, Adang Daradjatun read out the verdict against Eko Hendro Purnomo, Nafa Urbach and Ahmad Sahroni who were found guilty of violating ethics. The three members of the DPR were sentenced to deactivation from 3 to 6 months.
