MKMK: Jika Terbukti Langgar Kode Etik, Anwar Usman dkk Bisa Diberhentikan

"Dream - Chairman of the Honorary Council of the Constitutional Court (MKMK) Jimly Asshiddiqie explained three options for sanctions against constitutional judges if proven to have violated the code of ethics in examining and deciding on case number 90/PUU-XXI/2023 regarding the age limit requirements for presidential and vice-presidential candidates."

"Heaviest Fired"

The three options are in the form of reprimand, warning, and termination. All three, said Jimly, have been regulated in Constitutional Court Regulation (PMK) Number 1 of 2023. "If in the PMK (constitutional court regulation) it is clear that there are three kinds, reprimand, warning, termination," said Jimly at the Constitutional Court Building, Tuesday, October 31, 2023.

Regarding termination, Jimly said it could be in the form of termination without honor. However, it is still possible to carry out termination with honor.

"The termination, if explicitly mentioned, is a termination without respect, but there is also a termination with respect, there is also a termination not as a member but as a chairman."
Jimly said.

While there are many variations for warnings, according to Jimly, they range from ordinary warnings to very harsh ones. As for the lowest sanction, it is a reprimand. "For example, a reprimand can be delivered orally at the same time as the delivery of the verdict, so there is no need for a separate letter. But a reprimand can also be given through a separate letter. The separate letter provides the reprimand, but the verdict is attached," he explained. However, if the constitutional judges are not proven to have committed the reported violations, they will be rehabilitated.

"Thus, all nine (judges) were reported, you know. Maybe among those nine (judges) some will be rehabilitated. 'These are good people,' well, we will mention that."

"Belum Bisa Putuskan" translates to "Can't Decide Yet" in English.

"However, Jimly has not been able to disclose what indications of sanctions will be given. 'Yes, not yet, not yet able,' he said."

Jimly said that his party is currently investigating the reports received from the community. It is known that MKMK is currently examining the complainants and nine constitutional judges. MKMK has examined three accused judges on Tuesday, October 31, 2023, namely Anwar Usman, Arief Hidayat, and Enny Nurbaningsih.

Then, it is scheduled to examine Saldi Isra, Manahan M.P. Sitompul, and Suhartoyo on Wednesday, 1 November 2023. Meanwhile, the other three constitutional judges, namely Daniel Yusmic Pancastaki Foekh, M. Guntur Hamzah, and Wahiduddin Adams, will be examined on Thursday, 2 November 2023.
