Jakarta: Indonesia's president has filed a police complaint after a
polygamous former legislator accused the leader of lying about his
marriage to join a prestigious military academy in 1970, police said
yesterday.

Zaenal Ma'arif, who was sacked as legislator after taking a second
wife, has said he had evidence that President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono
was in a previous marriage before joining the academy, in breach of
rules requiring cadets to be single.

The president had filed a police complaint against Ma'arif on Sunday,
said Jakarta police spokesman Untung Yoga Ana.

"We treat the case just like other cases," Ana said.

The police would investigate the complaint and decide on whether it
should be pursued.

Presidential spokesman Andi Mallarangeng told reporters the accusation
was false.

"It's not true. Is there evidence?"

He said Yudhoyono had filed the complaint after laws banning insults
against the president were scrapped last year.

"The Constitutional Court has revoked an article [in the criminal
code] on insulting the president. In the past there was no need to
file a complaint."
