JAKARTA - Bawaslu dismissed accusations by the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) elite that said Bawaslu was sharper to the vice presidential candidate Gibran Rakabuming Raka than other candidate pairs.

"Just try to prove whether it is really sharp to Gibran. We will see the report on the results of the supervision of all of my friends," said Bawaslu Chairman Rahmat Bagja in Jakarta, Monday, January 15.

Previously, PSI Secretary General, Raja Juli Antoni, assessed that Bawaslu was only sharp to Gibran, while the other candidate pairs were rather blunt, even so he invited Bawaslu to investigate Gibran's cases.

Raja Juli mentioned several previous violations, one of which was Gibran's activity of distributing milk during Car Free Day. Then the latest is Gibran's meeting with 30 village heads in Maluku which are currently being processed by Bawaslu.

Regarding this assumption, Bawaslu emphasized the procedures for handling reports of alleged violations. Rahmat Bagja emphasized that the meeting with the village head/king in Maluku is currently being processed.

"It is still being processed, which is a meeting with the traditional head, then there is also a regulation as a village head, it is being processed by Bawaslu, Ambon City, Maluku Province. It is suspected that there was a violation," he said.
