JAKARTA - Members of the KPU Commissioners as defendants in the case of alleged leakage of fixed voter list data (DPT) for the 2024 election, requested that the assembly of the Election Organizers Honorary Council (DKPP) not decide the case as a violation of the code of ethics. Commissioner of the KPU Betty Epsilon said that the KPU had made various efforts to protect and prevent potential illegal access to data on the data contained on the Voter Data Information System (Sidalih) page. "The defendants are of the view that the complainant's arguments in this case are baseless arguments," said Betty in the DKPP Session Room, Jakarta, Wednesday, February 28, were confiscated by Antara. He explained that the KPU had prevented the leakage of the data in accordance with the laws and regulations in a professional and accountable manner. In addition, according to him, the investigation process of the case is still being processed at the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police. So that the existence of illegal access to the Sidalih application, according to him, cannot and necessarily be declared as a failure to protect personal data.

That way, his party also asked the DKPP session to reject all the arguments submitted by the complainants and recover the good names of the defendants, namely the KPU Commissioners.
