Protests Erupt in Indonesia as Parliament Moves to Overturn Court Ruling
Police clashed with tens of thousands of protesters in Jakarta and other major cities as public outrage grew over the Indonesian parliament’s attempt to reverse a recent constitutional court ruling. The unrest follows the court’s decision to remove the 20% regional assembly representation requirement for fielding candidates, which parliament moved to overturn within 24 hours, sparking fears of a constitutional crisis. A vote on the controversial legislation was postponed due to insufficient attendance in parliament.
