JAKARTA - The Governor of the Riau Islands Province (Kepri) Ansar Ahmad has issued a decree (SK) regarding the dismissal of the Tanjungpinang City DPRD Member from the Gerindra Party Muhammad Apriyandi for the 2019-2024 term.

In a copy of SK Number 1489 of 2021, the SK follows up on the letter from the Chairperson of the Tanjungpinang DPRD dated November 25, 2021 regarding the Proposal for the Dismissal of Members of the Tanjungpinang DPRD.

Then, the Gerindra Party DPP Decree dated 12 November 2021 concerning the Termination of Muhammad Apriyandi's Membership.

Furthermore, the SK DPC Parta Gerinda Tanjungpinang dated November 18, 2021 regarding Intertime Substitution (PAW) on behalf of Muhammad Apriyandi.

"This decree is valid from December 31, 2021," Ansar said in a copy of the letter quoted from Antara, Saturday, January 8.

Meanwhile, Tanjungpinang KPU chairman Aswin Nasution confirmed that he had received the Riau Islands Governor's Decree regarding the dismissal of legislator Gerindra Apriyandi.

However, his party has not been able to follow up on the decree, because it is still a copy.

"We are still waiting for a letter from the Tanjungpinang DPRD regarding the request for one candidate for PAW Apriyandi," said Aswin.

The Gerindra Party DPP dismissed Apriyandi as a member of the party faction in the Tanjungpinang DPRD based on Decree No. 11-0327/Kpts/DPP-Gerindra/2021 which was broadcast in a number of online media.

Based on the letter, the reason for the dismissal of Apriyandi as a member of the Gerindra Party was due to not paying the contribution of income as a member of the Tanjungpinang DPRD, so it was declared a violation of the party's AD/ART. Apriyandi then submitted an objection letter to the DPP because he felt he had fulfilled the obligation to pay the dues.

Responding to this, the Deputy Chairperson of the Gerindra Party, Habiburokhman, said that the dismissal of cadres who did not carry out their obligations was final and binding based on the decision of the Party Court.

"If the Party Court is as regulated in Law No. 2 of 2012 concerning Political Parties, it is final and binding internally. It remains only for the person concerned to file a dispute with the court against the decision of the party court," said Habiburokhman when contacted by VOI, Friday, November 19.

"But if it is internally binding, there are no more objections," he continued.
