The Secretary General of the PDI-P (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto regretted Denny Indrayana's statement claiming to have leaked the decision of the Constitutional Court (MK) regarding the election system lawsuit. This statement is considered to cause unnecessary speculation and create political accusations.
"We deeply regret Mr. Denny Indrayana's statement that without mentioning a clear source then had created a political speculation and even accused certain political scenarios," Hasto told reporters at the PDIP DPP office, Jalan Diponegoro, Menteng, Central Jakarta, Monday, May 29.
He actually quipped Denny Indrayana's statement, who had served as Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights (Wamenkum) in the era of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY). Hasto said that the government of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) had never made certain scenarios.
"Jadi jangan apa yang menjadi pengalaman Pak Denny dalam pemerintahan sebelumnya, sepertinya kemudian terjadi dalam pemerintahan Presiden Jokowi," tegasnya.
Furthermore, Hasto said that PDIP is always ready with the Constitutional Court's decision on the election system lawsuit. Open or closed, the party bearing the bull symbol feels that it is able to get people's support.
"So it is better for him to be responsible for who the source is, who has given up
"There will be unnecessary political speculation. It's better if we wait for the Constitutional Court's decision," he said.
"Both legislative elections with open and closed lists. Although PDIP is based on strategic aspects and also to encourage institutions, our political parties encourage closed proportional but we are also ready whatever is decided by the Constitutional Court," continued Hasto.
Denny Indrayana claimed to have received information about the decision of the Constitutional Court (MK) regarding the legislative election system which will return to a closed proportional system or party voting.

"This morning I received important information. The Constitutional Court will decide on the legislative election to return to a closed proportional system, again choosing a party image mark," Denny said via a tweet on his Twitter account @dennyindranaya, Sunday.
In his tweet, Denny also mentioned the source in the Constitutional Court. Although he did not answer clearly, Denny confirmed that the source was not a constitutional judge.
"Who is the source? The person I really trust is credibility, who is definitely not a Constitutional Judge," he said.
