"Okay, from the relevant parties (P Prabowo-Gibran team," Suhartoyo continued his turn to another party.

Moments earlier, Suhartoyo reprimanded the Chairman of the General Election Commission (KPU) Hasyim Asy'ari.

Suhartoyo revealed this brief warning after hearing the expert testimony submitted by the Ganjar-Mahfud camp, namely the professor of IPB Didin S. Damanhuri. Continued, the submission of questions by the Ganjar-Mahfud legal team as the applicant to the expert.

After that, it was the turn of the respondent, namely the KPU who was given the opportunity to ask the expert. When Suhartoyo looked at the KPU, he saw Hasyim Asy'ari lying down. Suhartoyo immediately reprimanded Hasyim.

"From the respondent is there a question? Mr. Hasyim is sleeping, right?" asked Suhartoyo.

Instantly, Hasyim immediately enforced his sitting position after Suhartoyo was reprimanded. Hasyim had moved his two eyes. Suhartoyo also continued the trial and missed the opportunity for the KPU to ask questions.
