Chairman of Bawaslu Rahmat Bagja revealed that his party found a common ground for a short video search featuring President Prabowo Subianto inviting Central Java residents to support candidate pair number 2 Ahmad Luthfi-Taj Yasin in the 2024 Simultaneous Pilkada.

"Yesterday's expert examination, we have found a common ground," said Bagja as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, November 19.

Even so, his party is still waiting for a reply from the Minister of State Secretary (Mensesneg). He also hopes that this process can be completed immediately so that clarity regarding this alleged violation can be conveyed to the public.

"We are waiting for a reply from the Minister of State Secretary. Hopefully it can be resolved quickly," he said.

Bagja explained that the new decision would be announced after the reply letter was received.

"Yes, he will answer it later, after there is a letter reply from the Minister of State Secretary," explained Bagja.

Bagja also ensured that this decision would soon be announced on Wednesday or Thursday.

For information, Bawaslu's search refers to the Constitutional Court's Decision Number 52 of 2024, which allows state officials, including presidents, to participate in campaigns with certain conditions.

These requirements include not using position facilities, except security, and taking leave outside the state's responsibility.

If in the search it is found that there are allegations of violations, Bawaslu will follow up according to the procedure. However, if there are no violations, the search results will be used as a surveillance report.
