JAKARTA - National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo stated that he had worked professionally and according to the regulations related to the handling of alleged fake diplomas belonging to the 7th President of the Republic of Indonesia, Joko Widodo or Jokowi.

The statement was made in response to doubts from various parties, especially the former Minister of Youth and Sports (Menpora) Roy Suryo regarding the results of the handling of the allegation.

"The National Police will work professionally related to legal standing and so on," Sigit told reporters quoted on Friday, June 13.

In addition, the National Police, in this case Bareskrim, will also involve external supervisors. Thus, all steps taken by investigators can be seen and the results of the handling can be retested.

That way, all the results of the handling of Jokowi's alleged fake diploma can be accounted for.

"If the Police then take steps, the next process can all be accounted for," said Sigit.

As previously reported, Roy Suryo still doubts the authenticity of the certificate belonging to the 7th President Joko Widodo (Jokowi). Although, Bareskrim Polri based on the results of the investigation and forensic laboratory tests stated that the document was identical.

According to him, doubts still surround him because the police's process of proving was only the beginning.

"The results of the Puslabfor Polri Headquarters are not final, they are only one part of the proof process and are not authentic results, just identical," said Roy Suyo to VOI, Friday, May 23.

In addition, the identification process is also considered not transparent. In fact, the announcement of the authenticity of Jokowi's diploma actually had an impact on the fall of the image of the Police.

Because, in the process, the National Police did not show Jokowi's diploma which was called genuine and legal.

"Just look at the mostly public opinion, so it doubted the result and dropped the image of the National Police Headquarters, especially since the original diploma was not shown," said Roy Suryo.
