The Attorney General's Office (AGO) revealed the reason why the state attorney (JPN) no longer accompanied the Vice President (Wapres) Gibran Rakabuming Raka in the trial of a civil lawsuit related to a high school diploma at the Central Jakarta District Court (PN Jakpus).

Head of the Legal Information Center (Kapuspenkum) at the Attorney General's Office, Anang Supriatna, explained that the application for the lawsuit was actually addressed to the Secretariat of the Vice President (Setwapres) of the Republic of Indonesia.

Because it is addressed to state institutions, there is a request for legal assistance addressed to JPN.

"Due to special powers, JPN can be present at the trial," he said in Jakarta, Thursday, was confiscated by Antara.

However, in the trial, the petitioner stated that the lawsuit filed was personal to Gibran Rakabuming Raka, not a position.

"The panel of judges is of the opinion that because this is a personal lawsuit, it is considered by the Prosecutor's Office, the State Attorney JPN, does not have a legal standing," said Anang.

Therefore, JPN is no longer Gibran's legal advisor.

It is known that Gibran Rakabuming Raka and the General Election Commission (KPU) were sued civilly by a civilian named Subhan Pala to the Central Jakarta District Court.

The civil lawsuit was registered with number 583/Pdt.G/2025/PN Jkt.Pst.

The essence of this lawsuit is that Gibran is suspected of having committed a violation while running for vice president related to his high school diploma.
