JAKARTA - The spokesman for the KLB version of the Democratic Party, Muhammad Rahmad, emphasized that Jhoni Allen Marbun was indeed a victim of the arbitrariness of Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) and his eldest son. He was dishonorably discharged from the party and members of the DPR, without any prior communication.

This was conveyed in response to the statement by the Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) camp who called Jhoni Allen Marbun 'The Coup Perpetrator Who Is So Sacrificial as a Victim'.

"SBY as Chair of the High Council who has full authority to regulate the Party Court and AHY as the General Chair, must not brutally and wildly fire and dismiss party cadres. All have provisions and rules of the game," said Rahmad, Thursday, March 25.

Supposedly, he continued, SBY and AHY should provide good examples and role models for the Indonesian people and the world on how to manage a modern, open and polite political party in Indonesia.

"When the provisions and rules of the game in party management are violated by SBY and AHY, law-abiding cadres whose rights are guaranteed by law, can seek justice through legal channels to court," said Rahmad.

According to Rahmad, Jhoni Allen Marbun is a cadre of the Democratic Party and also a member of the Indonesian Parliament who is seeking justice through the right channels. One of them filed a lawsuit at the Central Jakarta District Court.

Because he said, justice through the Party Court was only written on paper. Where the Democratic Party Court is in the power of SBY as Chairman of the High Council so that it cannot be used as an independent institution to seek justice.

"There have been many examples that deserve to be used as jurisprudence in Indonesia, where the actions of arbitrary and brutal political party managers against cadres have been properly punished by the court," he said.

Because of this, the KLB is confident that the court will grant Jhoni Allen Marbun's request, who is also secretary general of the Democratic Party under Moeldoko's leadership.

"He deserves justice," said Rahmad added.
