JAKARTA - The Gerindra Party has officially sacked M Taufik. This dismissal was the result of the Gerindra Party Honorary Council session because a number of mistakes and violations were found by the former deputy chairman of the DKI DPRD, one of which was lying. "Today, Tuesday, June 7, 2022, the Honorary Council of the Gerindra Party has held a meeting regarding the complaint from Taufik's brother, who was actually summoned on February 21, 2022. We have Taufik in court and there has already given a statement, he will not repeat it again his actions and admit his guilt," said Deputy Chairperson of the Party Honorary Council (MKP) Wihadi Wiyanto at the Gerindra Party DPP Office, South Jakarta, Tuesday, June 7.

Then after the change of deputy chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, continued Wihadi, Taufik apparently made a lot of maneuvers by stating that he would resign from the Gerindra Party. There was even news that Taufik wanted to move to the NasDem Party, but he did not admit it at the MKP trial.

"Today, we are hearing again that what Taufik's brother did violates what was at the court on February 21. When we asked him, he also made it clear that he would be loyal to Gerindra. But in fact, we have already asked him. many times during the trial under oath whether to leave the Gerindra Party, he stated that he would remain at Gerindra," explained Wihadi. Therefore, said Wihadi, MKP Gerindra will re-trial the decision of the previous trial. So that later found errors that became the party's record. "One of them, until now when Taufik was chairman of the DPRD, the DPD (Gerindra) office was not there. And also during the 2019 presidential election, DKI also lost, that's a record too. Then there are several corruption cases that are still in progress and examined at the KPK," said Wihadi. It is known that M Taufik's name appeared in the trial of the land acquisition corruption case in Munjul, Pondok Rangon, East Jakarta.

"Seeing that and the disloyalty of Taufik's brother and violating what was conveyed in February which stated that he would remain with Gerindra, but in fact with maneuvers he said he would resign," he explained.

"In addition to being disloyal, he also stated that he lied when examined by the honorary assembly. Because of that lie we swore at the MKP, a statement that shouldn't lie but the fact that he was lying. So that's one of the points we used to lose when he lied in the assembly trial. Therefore, the Party's Honorary Council has agreed to cut off Taufik's brother and fire him as a Gerindra cadre starting today," said Wihadi.

Wihadi said his party would immediately process the decision administratively today.

"So we will tell Taufik that he has been fired as a Gerindra cadre," he concluded.
