JAKARTA - The head of the Prabowo-Gibran legal team, Yusril Ihza Mahendra, admitted that he was confused by the expert explanation brought by the Anies-Muhaimin team in the 2024 presidential election dispute trial.
This was revealed by Yusril after the explanation of Managing Director of Political Economy and Policy Studies (PEPS) Anthony Budiawan regarding violations of the constitution and laws by President Joko Widodo for the victory of Prabowo-Gibran.
Yusril assessed that the expert did not show his field of expertise in the presentation given. Thus, Yusril proposed a notification of the field of science before the expert explained.
"So that we are not confused as related parties, maybe it is better for a lawyer who presents an expert to explain what kind of expert this expert really is," said Yusril at the Constitutional Court hearing, Monday, April 1.
"Is he a criminal expert, economist, or expert present here? We are confused," he continued.
Responding to this, Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court Suhartoyo views that the assessment of the suitability of the field of science towards the explanations of the applicants is the authority of the Constitutional Court.
"Let us judge, Prof," Suhartoyo replied to Yusril.
In his presentation, expert Anthony said that Jokowi violated a number of provisions, namely the provision of social assistance unilaterally by Jokowi violated Article 23 of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and Law Number 17 of 2003 concerning State Finance.
Then, irregularities in the 2024 State Budget Policy for political interests that benefit the President's (Gibran) children violate Law Number 28 of 1999 concerning State Administrators who are Clean and Free from Corruption, Collusion, and Nepotism; and violate Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption.
