JAKARTA - Candidate for Governor of West Sumatra (West Sumatra) Mulyadi has been named as a suspected criminal election related to regional elections. The party that carries Mulyadi in West Sumatra, the Democrats, respects the legal process, but warns that Mulyadi's "campaign out of schedule" case is political.
"We respect and respect the ongoing legal process, but law enforcers should be able to act fairly to assess this issue in a clear, proportional and fair manner. This is the Pilkada, a political contestation, if it is not accurate and precise in assessing the situation and taking steps to handle the law, it will be possible and reasonable to be considered political, "said Secretary of the Democratic DPP Election Winning Body (Bappilu) Kamhar Lakumani in a written statement to VOI, Saturday, 5 December.
Democrat believes that the people of West Sumatra can assess clearly and objectively about Mulyadi, who only attended an invitation to the coffee break program on private television. Democrat emphasized that Mulyadi was not the initiator of the event.
"Because this program has been on TV One for a long time. Paslon certainly only responds to questions from the host of the event. If there is a normative statement as a response that is in line with the candidate's vision, it is humane, ”said Kamhar.
“The public knows that this is tendentious and driven by competitors. For us, this is an affirmation that the survey results that put our candidate pairs at the top are valid and true, thus encouraging competitors to use all means to tackle. We believe that the people of West Sumatra are very intelligent and politically literate, one of the areas where democracy is champion, of course they cannot tolerate people who justify all means, "said Kamhar.
But Kamhar emphasized that the Democrats are a party that abides by principles. That is why the Democrats are legally accompanying Mulyadi.
"We appreciate the ongoing legal process, of course, it will provide assistance and advocacy for this candidate pair. Pak Mulyadi is one of the main and best cadres of the Democratic Party from West Sumatra, "said Kamhar.
Previously reported, the National Police Public Relations Division Karo Penmas, Brigadier General Awi Setiyono, said the West Sumatra cagub Mulyadi was named a suspect in the alleged election crime, namely campaigning outside of schedule.
"Yes, it is true that after the title of the case yesterday, the candidate for Governor of West Sumatra on behalf of M was named a suspect," said Brigadier General Awi, Saturday, December 5.
The suspect's determination was made on Friday, December 4. Investigators have also scheduled Mulyadi's examination as a suspect.
