JAKARTA - Member of the Democratic Party's High Council, Hinca Panjaitan, refused if his party was said to be involved in the issue of a fake diploma of the former President of the Republic of Indonesia, Joko Widodo.

Hinca emphasized that his party had absolutely nothing to do with Jokowi's accusations about a political agenda behind the issue.

"We emphasize that we have nothing to do with this fake diploma case, especially regarding the political agenda behind this. This is a big slander, we reject this," said Hinca at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, Monday, July 28.

"There is absolutely no involvement of the Democratic Party and all of us are cadres against it. If Brother Roy Suryo is withdrawn from the Democratic Party, I will confirm that when I was Secretary General of the Democratic Party, brother Roy Suryo was no longer a member of the Democratic Party," he continued.

It is known that Roy Suryo is currently being investigated for his report regarding Jokowi's fake diploma. However, Hinca guarantees that the report has nothing to do with the Democratic Party even though Roy Suryo once joined the party bearing the mercy symbol.

"So there is no Roy Suryo relationship with the Democratic Party. There is absolutely nothing. Maybe people are attractive, because Roy Suryo once had experience with us, I emphasize once again, I was a Democratic Party at that time," said Hinca.

"It is his personal responsibility. The Democratic Party is not involved at all and does not want to involve himself in the case of fake diplomas," he continued.

Hinca also admitted that she had heard about the 'blue party' issue that was behind the polemic of Jokowi's diploma. However, he said, there was no Democratic connection with the issue, including anything related to Roy Suryo.

"We heard that, so because it was wild, we asked yesterday, the General Chair, Mas AHY too, ordered Mr. Komstra us to explain that. So because these friends asked directly, I answered directly, because if it was related to Roy Suryo with the blue party, at that time I was the secretary general.

And since then there has been no relationship between Roy Suryo and the Democratic Party. Because he withdrew, he resigned," he explained.

"And at that time, if we don't step back, we will stop. Because at that time the case had exceeded the limit," added Hinca.

It is known, Roy Suryo cs submitted a request for a special case title related to the alleged case of Jokowi's fake diploma. Jokowi also suspects that there is a big agenda behind the issue of fake diplomas.

"My feeing said, there is a big political agenda in allegations of fake diplomas and impeachment," said Jokowi at his residence, Friday, July 25.
