JAKARTA - Happy news came from the family of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi). President Jokowi's sister, Idayati, is rumored to be marrying the Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court (MK) Anwar Usman.
Constitutional law observer Refli Harun responded to the marriage. He wondered whether the good news had anything to do with the cases being handled at the Constitutional Court so far.
"Because Anwar Usman is the Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court, and don't forget that until now there are many controversial cases in the Constitutional Court," he said, quoted from the YouTube channel Refly Harun, Tuesday, March 22.
Refly explained that in the request to change the presidential threshold or the provision for the presidential and vice presidential nomination threshold from 20 percent to zero percent, the Constitutional Court had taken a controversial decision.
According to him, the Constitutional Court may consider changes to Article 222 of Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections.
The applicant for the presidential threshold test at that time argued that the zero percent threshold could provide an opportunity for all parties to get the constitutional right to run for president.
"For example, regarding the presidential threshold, the legal standing was not granted, which is strange and miraculous, somehow the logic of the Constitutional Court cannot compare the articles being tested," said Refly.
According to Refly, the article being tested is Article 222 of the Election Law, not Article 6A paragraph 2 of the 1945 Constitution regarding election nominations by political parties. He said Article 6A paragraph 2 is only one of the articles used as a reference that Article 222 of the Election Law is contrary to the constitution.
"This is very simple as a constitutional law person. So the MK judge misleads," he added.
As is known, Idayati's marriage contract with Anwar Usman is scheduled to take place on May 26, 2022. While the application procession has been held in Solo on March 12, 2022.
Idayanti's husband, Hari Mulyono, is known to have died on September 24, 2014. Hari breathed his last after undergoing treatment at Fatot Subroto Army Hospital due to a stroke he suffered.
Meanwhile, Anwar Usman's wife, Suhada Ahmad Sidiq, passed away before God on November 26, 2021. Suhada died of a heart attack.
