SURABAYA - The Mayor of Surabaya, Tri Rismaharini (Risma), did not fulfill the summons of the Surabaya City Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu). This summons was based on reports submitted to Bawaslu about the alleged abuse of Risma's authority and neutrality in the Surabaya Pilkada.

"Not yet here, God willing, tomorrow. Because today he still has a UN Habitat event," said Head of Bawaslu for the City of Surabaya, M. Agil Akbar, confirmed, Monday, October 5.

Agil said that his party had sent a summons to Risma as a reported party. Risma was asked to clarify the various accusations made against her. Apart from Risma, other parties such as the reported and witnesses have also been summoned.

"Indeed, one of the procedures is summoning various parties for clarification. We have summoned all of the reporters, reported witnesses, and related parties," said Agil.

Agil said several parties had fulfilled the summons, namely the reporter and the reporting witness. Risma was reported to Bawaslu by a team of advocates supporting the pair of candidates for mayor-vice mayor of Surabaya Machfud Arifin-Mujiaman and the East Java Independent Election Monitoring Committee (KIPP).

"Reporters, witnesses and related parties have fulfilled the summons on last Saturday," said Agil.
