The Constitutional Court rejected six requests for Dispute over General Election Results (PHPU) for the 2024 Legislative Election submitted by a number of parties in Maluku Province. The rejection of the six PHPU applications was decided after the Constitutional Court held a deliberation meeting at the Constitutional Court Building in Jakarta, Tuesday, May 21. The chairman of the General Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu) of Maluku Province, Subair, said that the Maluku Bawaslu previously brought 12 registered case requests to be tried at the Constitutional Court. "Of the 12 PHPU applications, there were six cases that were rejected or declared unacceptable, while the other six cases are still under investigation," said Subair in Ambon, Antara, Wednesday, May 22. These six cases were rejected for varying reasons, but all of them were declared ineligible for trial at the Constitutional Court.
