JAKARTA - Daily Executive (Plh) of the President of the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) Ahmad Heryawan (Aher) revealed that a PKS cadre with the initials HA who had just been inaugurated as a member of the Singkawang City DPRD had been fired from the party. Aher said that currently the process of dismissal is being processed by the PKS legal team.

"It's been (fired, ed). The legal team is currently processing it. Now just wait for the announcement," Aher told reporters in Jakarta, Sunday, September 22.

Aher said his party did not tolerate immoral acts by its cadres at all. Aher said HA was fired from PKS as well as a member of the Singkawang DPRD.

"Strict action has been taken, namely dismissal from PKS members and dismissal from the DPRD. PKS does not tolerate immoral acts, sexual crimes, even the slightest sexual violence," said Aher.

As previously reported, HA, who is a suspect in the sexual abuse of minors, is still following the oath of office of a member of the Singkawang City DPRD for the 2024-2029 term at Balairung Singkawang Mayor's Office, Tuesday, September 16.

Based on a letter from a hospital in Pontianak City, HA was asked to rest completely until September 27. HA's attorney, Akbar Hidayatullah admitted that his client needed a total rest until September 27, 2024.

In this case, the Singkawang Police have summoned HA twice, but the person concerned was not present on the grounds of illness which was strengthened by a certificate from a doctor at a hospital in Pontianak City.

On a separate occasion, Chairman of the Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu) Rahmat Bagja spoke up regarding this case. According to Bagja, the court will give a decision regarding the case that ensnared HA.

If HA has been properly proven guilty of immoral acts against children, HA can no longer be a member of the Singkawang DPRD.

"The problem is whether it is proven or not, there has been a court decision? So the immoral act, after the decision is made, can only apply," explained Rahmat Bagja in the Ancol area, North Jakarta, last week.

"For example, if it is proven, or for example, the court's decision makes the person concerned no longer meet the requirements as a member of the DPRD," he added.
