“Albertus Keiya from PPP in Pania Regency with 1,025 votes and Kamariduiin Watubun in Paniai with 74,526 votes. In Dogiyai Regency, on behalf of Albertus, the number is 32,634,” said Markus.

“There is an addition, Your Honor, regarding this case, there is a report but Bawaslu has issued a status that the report does not meet the formal material requirements,” said Yonas Yonampa, Representative from Bawaslu.

The Relevant Party provided information in this case. According to Mulyadi Marks Phillian as the legal counsel for the Relevant Party, the Petitioner cannot argue to ask the KPU as the Respondent to return 65,587 votes without being based on valid and relevant evidence. According to Mulyadi, the Relevant Party's vote acquisition of 74,525 votes in Pania Regency is in accordance with the Respondent's Decision.

Furthermore, Mulyadi mentioned that for Dogiyai Regency, based on the Respondent's recapitulation, it is known that the Petitioner's votes were 32,634 votes and the Relevant Party's votes were 8,878 votes. If referring to the DPT in Dogiyai Regency, the total is around 95,655 votes, while the Petitioner argues that their votes were 95,714 votes, which exceeds the DPT.

In the Petitum, the Relevant Party requested the Court to reject the petitioner's request in its entirety and to declare the Decree of the General Election Commission Number 360 of 2024 correct.
