Bawaslu (ANTARA/Tri Meilani Ameliya) courtroom

YOGYAKARTA - The lawsuit from the People's Fair and Prosperous Party (Prima) against the General Elections Commission (KPU) was finally granted by the Election Supervisory Body. The lawsuit was filed because the Prima Party did not accept being declared unsuccessful in the 2024 election participants. So what is the reason for Bawaslu to reject the Prima Party's lawsuit?

The Prima Party filed a lawsuit against the KPU to Bawaslu with Number: 001/LP/ADM/BWSL/00.00/III/2023. Previously, the Pirma Party had taken a number of legal steps to be able to participate in the 2024 General Election. In the First lawsuit, Bawaslu had granted the Prima Party's lawsuit and asked the KPU to give the opportunity to the man to verify the improvement administration. However, Prima was still declared ineligible.

Prima then sued the KPU again to the State Administrative Court (PTUN). The lawsuit filed twice was again rejected. Until finally Prima's lawsuit was won by the Central Jakarta District Court (PN). Many parties are wondering why Bawaslu defended the Prima Party lawsuit.

Bawaslu stated that the KPU was proven guilty of violating the administration related to the registration process of the Prima Party as a candidate for the 2024 General Election.

"Considering that based on these considerations, the Audit Council assessed the actions of the Reported Party which had issued Letter Number: Decision Number: 001/LP/ADM.PL/BWSL/00.00/III/2023 Page 46 of 49, 1063/PL.01.1-SD/05/2022 and other accompanying actions have restricted PRIMA to correct or replace the required documents based on the minutes regarding the recapitulation of administrative verification results before improvement. The actions according to the Examining Council have violated the provisions of Article 46 paragraph (1) and paragraph (2) of the General Election Commission Regulation Number 4 of 2022 concerning Registration, Verification, and the Determination of the Political Party Participants in the General Election of Members of the House of Representatives and the Regional House of Representatives (hereafter referred to as PKPU 4/2022), "said Puadi Member of the Bawaslu Session.

Bawaslu asked the KPU to carry out administrative verification (vermin) for improvements to the Prima Party's revised requirements documents. The order was issued based on the Decision of the Handling Session for Alleged Violations of the 2024 Election Administration, as stated in the lawsuit from the Prima Party.

"Ordered the reported party (KPU) to provide Prima with the opportunity to submit the document for the repair requirements to the reported party based on the minutes regarding the recapitulation of the results of administrative verification before improvement," said Rahmat Bagja in a verdict hearing on YouTube Bawaslu RI, Monday (20/3/2023).

Bawaslu also ordered the KPU to issue a report on the recapitulation of the results of the administrative verification. The KPU was asked to release a decision regarding the schedule and stages of submitting verification documents for the application of political parties participating in DPR and DPRD members.

"(Decised) by Rahmat Bagja as chairman, Loly Suhenty as a member, Puadi as a member, Herwyn as a member, and Totok Hariyono as a member," said Badja.

Badja also said that the administrative verification process for the Prima Party's improvement requirements was carried out by the KPU within 10 x 24 hours from the opening of the sipol access by the reported party.

"Three, ordered the reported party (KPU) to verify the administrative repair of the repair requirements documents submitted by Prima," said Bagja.

Such is the review of the reason why Bawaslu defended the Prima Party's lawsuit against the KPU. After going through a long course of law, Bawaslu finally granted the Prima party's lawsuit by stating that the KPU was found guilty of violating the administration of the registration process for the 2024 election participants. The Prima Party made the Central Jakarta District Court decision as strong evidence indicating violations committed by the KPU.
