JAKARTA - Deputy Chairperson of DKI Jakarta Gerindra Party DPD Jimmy Alexander Turangan asked Gerindra General Chair Prabowo Subianto to fire East Jakarta Gerindra DPC Chairman Ali Lubis.

This request for dismissal is suspected to have been the action of Ali Lubis, who sued Prabowo to court for failing to fire Mohamad Taufik as a Gerindra cadre. Previously, the Gerindra Party Honorary Council (MKP) had issued a recommendation to Prabowo to fire Taufik.

Jimmy views that the East Jakarta Gerindra DPC has no right to sue Prabowo, who is also the chairman of the Gerindra Board of Trustees and sues Gerindra's DPP just because he has not yet decided on his position regarding Taufik's dismissal.

"What's the matter with the East Jakarta DPC suing the Board of Trustees and the Gerindra Party DPP regarding the decision of the Gerindra MKP which has not been implemented by the Gerindra DPP. Who is he to pressure the DPP let alone to sue the court," said Jimmy in his statement, Thursday, July 21.

Therefore, the former member of the DKI DPRD asked Prabowo to fire Ali Lubis from the position of Chairperson of the East Jakarta Gerindra DPC. Because, he said, the maneuvers of the East Jakarta Gerindra cadres actually made the party even more murky.

"For all his behavior, I actually asked the DPP to fire him from the chairman of the DPC," said Jimmy.

For information, this lawsuit was submitted to the South Jakarta District Court by the Chairman of the DPC Gerindra Jaktim Ali Hakim Lubis as the plaintiff. The plaintiff asked the court to order the defendant to immediately fire Mohamad Taufik as a Gerindra cadre according to the recommendation of the Gerindra MKP.

Meanwhile, the first defendant is the Gerindra Board of Trustees, chaired by Prabowo Subianto who also serves as the General Chair of Gerindra. Then, the second defendant is the Central Executive Board (DPP) Gerindra.

"Punished Defendant I and Defendant II to immediately implement the decision of the Honorary Council of the Gerindra Party," along with the contents of the petition filed by the DPC Gerindra Jaktim, quoted at SIPP PN South Jakarta.

The MKP's recommendation for the dismissal of M. Taufik was issued on Tuesday, June 7, 2022, based on the results of their trial.

At that time, the Chair of the Gerindra MKP session, Wihadi Wiyanto explained, there was an accumulation of mistakes and violations that had been committed by Taufik as a Gerindra Party cadre, starting from the 2019 presidential election.

During his tenure as Chair of the Gerindra DPD DKI Jakarta, as well as at the DKI Jakarta DPRD from the Gerindra faction, Taufik is considered to have failed in carrying out the party's mandate related to the loss of votes for the Prabowo-Sandi pair in DKI Jakarta in the 2019 Presidential Election.

Then, Taufik is often mentioned in corruption cases (Tipikor) within the DKI government. In addition, until now the Gerindra DPD DKI Jakarta does not yet have a permanent office like the Gerindra Party DPD DPDs in other areas.

Regarding the violation of AD/ART, Wihadi said, Taufik has also been proven to have committed acts that are contrary to and not in line with the direction of the Gerindra Party's policy. That is, he has violated his oath as a Gerindra Party cadre who decided to submit and obey the party's ideology and discipline and to maintain the honor, dignity and cohesiveness of the party.
