Indonesia judicial body to question

Indonesia’s judicial oversight body on Friday said it would summon judges from a district court to explain what it called a “controversial” ruling that effectively ordered a delay in 2024 presidential and general elections.
Handling a lawsuit from an obscure party whose election registration was denied, the Central Jakarta district court on Thursday ruled the election commission must halt all of its election preparations for more than two years.
The decision, which would push back national polls until 2025 at the earliest, has drawn widespread criticism and questions about the court’s authority and why it deemed all election processes must be stopped.
