8 Constitutional Court Judges Prepare to Handle Dispute over 2024 General Election Results

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Constitutional Court or MK has begun making preparations to handle the 2024 General Election Results Dispute (PHPU). These preparations are being made so that the handling of the 2024 PHPU runs optimally.

Eight of the MK's nine constitutional judges will handle PHPU disputes. Anwar Usman will not be among them, following the Honorary Court of the Constitutional Court (MKMK) ruling no.2/MKMK/L/11/2023 that he had committed a serious ethical violation. One of the punishments was that he was not allowed to get involved or involve himself in PHPU disputes.

The following are the eight judges who will handle the PHPU:
