JAKARTA The police continue to investigate the alleged defamation case of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) regarding allegations of using fake diplomas. Most recently, Polda Metro Jaya investigators examined a cadre of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) from Lombok with the initials DS.
"Rencana pemeriksaan klarifikasi DS," ujar Kabid Humas Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Ade Ary Syam Indradi kepada wartawan, Senin, 19 Mei.
DS is known as Dian Sandi, who previously uploaded a photo of President Jokowi's diploma to X's social media account. The examination of Dian is scheduled to take place at 10.00 WIB at the Metro Jaya Police Headquarters.
In this case, the police have examined a total of 24 witnesses. Some of them are public figures, including former Minister of Youth and Sports Roy Suryo and doctor Tifauzia Tyassuma alias Doctor Tifa.
This case stems from an official report submitted directly by President Jokowi to the Polda Metro Jaya. He reported the parties who accused him of using fake diplomas as a form of defamation.
The report refers to a number of articles in the Criminal Code (KUHP), namely Articles 310 and 311 concerning defamation. In addition, investigators also apply Article 27A, Article 32, and Article 35 of the Electronic Information and Transaction Law (UU ITE).

President Jokowi emphasized that this legal step was taken so that the accusations that had been developing could be handled openly and thoroughly.
"Yes, this is actually a minor matter, yes, it is a matter of alleged fake diplomas. But it does need to be brought to the realm of law so that everything is clear and clear," said Jokowi.
Until now, investigators are still clarifying and collecting evidence to follow up on the report legally.
