JAKARTA - The National Team for Winning Anies-Muhaimin (Timnas AMIN) admitted that the permit for Anies Baswedan's presidential candidate activities during the campaign was often canceled by unscrupulous officers.

The head of the National Legal Team (THN) of the AMIN National Team, Ari Yusuf Amir, said that the cancellation of Anies' permit for activities took place in a number of cities in Indonesia.

"The 2024 presidential election is marked by the attitude of government officials or law enforcers who prohibit or revoke the permits of several activities that will be attended by Presidential Candidate Anies Baswedan. Neo New Order's attitude has even been carried out several times in several regions in Indonesia," said Ari at the AMIN Winning House, Central Jakarta, Thursday, December 28.

Ari explained six activities of Anies whose license was revoked. First, the grand gathering of Anies Baswedan and the Nasdem party at Taman Ratu Sultanah Safiatuddin Aceh.

Second, the revocation of the permit to use the Patriot Candrabhaga Bekasi Stadium for gymnastics events that will be attended by Anies. Third, the use of a place for Anies Baswedan's political safari in Pekanbaru, Riau.

Fourth, there was an attempt to revoke the permit for Anies Baswedan's activities in Ciamis and Tasikmalaya, but the event continued.

Fifth, the revocation of the permit to use the Indonesian building Sues in Bandung, just hours before the event is held. Sixth, the permit for the "Desak Anies" event in the open arena of the NTB Provincial Cultural Park was canceled and finally the event was moved to the Food Court Amanah.

Ari accused the apparatus of being neutral during the 2024 election stage. According to him, many problems are at stake for the integrity of the election.

"Therefore, the THN note should be an evaluation material for election organizers, the government and law enforcement officials who in some cases show an attitude of neutrality and unprofessionalism," said Ari.
