Fahmi, Marzuki beat Golkar<\/p>\n
JAKARTA: The West Jakarta District Court decided on Tuesday in
\nfavor of Golkar politicians Fahmi Idris and Marzuki Darusman, who
\nhad filed a lawsuit against the party over its dismissal of them.<\/p>\n
In their verdict, the panel of judges said the party decision
\nto fire the two politicians was not legitimate because it was
\nmade in violation of the party's statutes.<\/p>\n
The statutes spell out three steps that must be taken when
\ndismissing party executives, one of which being they would be
\ngiven 30 days to correct any error they had made. The two were
\naxed in about 10 days after openly supporting President Susilo
\nBambang Yudhoyono in defiance of the party's dictates.<\/p>\n
The procedure requires the party leaders to issue the first
\nand second official reprimands before they can convene to fire
\nerrant party members.<\/p>\n
The judges also said Golkar failed to give Fahmi and Marzuki a
\nchance to defend themselves. Golkar leaders have to rehabilitate
\nthe two executive's reputation and announce it in Kompas daily
\nfor three consecutive days. -- Antara<\/p>",
