Previously, the Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court (MK) Suhartoyo opened and chaired the trial of the decision on the 2024 General Election Result Dispute (PHPU) in the second floor trial room of the Indonesian Constitutional Court, Jakarta, Monday morning.

Eight construction panel of judges began to enter the courtroom at 08.58 WIB. Then, Suhartoyo knocked the hammer at 08.59 WIB as a sign of the start of the presidential election dispute trial.

"The Trial of Case Number 1 and Number 2/PHPU.PRES-XXII/2024 was opened and the trial was declared open to the public," Suhartoyo said.

Suhartoyo said the agenda for today's trial was the pronunciation of the verdict for two cases, namely those submitted by Anies-Muhaimin and Ganjar-Mahfud. He also reminded the parties in the case not to interrupt during the trial.

"The panel of judges will only read out or say the verdict in the main parts, the rest is considered pronounced and the things that are not spoken or are not read out are considered a unit that is inseparable from the decisions spoken or read out," he said.

The trial began with reading the verdict for the case filed by Anies-Muhaimin.

It is known that the lawsuit filed by Anies-Muhaimin is registered with Case Number 1/PHPU.PRES-XXII/2024, while the Ganjar-Mahfud lawsuit is registered with Case Number 2/PHPU.PRES-XXII/2024.
