Still not wanting to give up, Prabowo-Sandi filed an appeal to Supreme Court

After their lawsuit about fraud and structured, systematic and massive administrative violations in Indonesian President's election for 2019-2024 period was rejected by the Constitutional Court (MK), presidential candidate number 02, Prabowo Subianto and Sandiaga Uno seemed still not want to give up. Today (10/7), through the Supreme Court (MA) official website, there has been a filing of a structured, systematic, and massive Prabowo-Sandi administrative violation case with number 2P / PAP / 2019 which was registered on July 3, 2019.

This appeal was reportedly being processed by the C team from MA and submitted directly by Prabowo-Sandi, who had previously given power to the Advocate Office and Nicholay Legal Consultant Aprilindo Associates, not through Badan Pemenangan Nasional (BPN) as when filing with previous lawsuit in MK.

This was the second submission, after Djoko Santoso, Chairman of BPN, had appealed to Supreme Court. But the appeal was rejected because it was Prabowo-Sandil who was the participant in the 2019 presidential election that should be filed the lawsuit. Not BPN that doesn’t have legal standing.

However, Deputy General Chairperson of the Gerindra Party DPP, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, denied the claim. He said that the appeal was carried out without the knowledge of his party. He said that the attorney who had filed a lawsuit against the law didn’t ask for permission and didn’t coordinate with his party. Sufmi felt that the appeal was actually an old matter that had been rejected by the MA because of administrative problems. But he also mentioned that he would coordinate with Prabowo and Sandiaga Uno regarding the re-submission of the cassation.
