Indonesia judicial body to question judges over election delay ruling (update)

JAKARTA, March 3 (Reuters): 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 called Prima, whose election registration was denied, the Central Jakarta district court on Thursday ruled the election commission (KPU) must halt all of its election preparations for more than two years.
