The 9th plenary session of the Regional Representatives Council (DPD) on Tuesday, February 5, 2024, agreed to set up a special committee to follow up on reports of frauds in the recently concluded 2024 general elections.
The session, presided over by DPD Speaker La Nyalla Mahmud Mattalitti, began with the reading of the DPD recess report by the Speaker, then continued with the reading of the Election Fraud Complaint Post Report garnered from the 37 provinces ahead of the 2024 General Elections.
The DPD responded to the report by scheduling to summon the General Elections Commision (KPU), the Election Supervisory Agency ( BAWASLU), the National Police chief and related parties through the council’s Committee I.
The report of the 2024 Election Fraud Complaint Post found that there were a lot of indications of fraud submitted by the community in the organization of the 2024 elections.
In the plenary session, DPD member from South Sulawesi Tamsil Linrung proposed for the establishment of the Special Committe on the 2024 Elections as a follow-up to the community report.
"I respond to the Speaker's submission regarding the assignment for DPD Committee 1 to follow up on the issue of election fraud. DPD needs to encourage the establishment of the Elections Special Committee (PANSUS PEMILU) to oversee alleged violations and election fraud," Tamsil said.
Vice Chairwoman of Committee I, Sylviana Murni, echoed Tamsil's statement on the necessity of setting up the Elections Special Committe.
"We have issued a statement to follow up on the results of the report compiled by the Election Fraud Complaint Post from regions across the country," she said.
