JAKARTA - The South Jakarta District Court (PN Jaksel) is scheduled to read the second pretrial ruling filed by Roy Suryo regarding the designation of him as a suspect in the alleged defamation and defamation case regarding the authenticity of the 7th President of the Republic of Indonesia Joko Widodo's (Jokowi) diploma, Monday, July 20.

Public Relations of South Jakarta Police, Halida Rahardhini, said the reading of the verdict would be held at 13.00 WIB.

"The second pre-trial hearing for Roy Suryo will be held on Monday at 13.00 WIB," said Halida, quoted from Antara, Monday.

The pretrial application was registered with case number 108/Pid.Pra/2026/PN JKT.SEL and was examined by single judge I Ketut Darpawan.

In his application, Roy Suryo asked the panel of judges to grant all the claims he had filed. He questioned the validity of his designation as a suspect for alleged violations of Article 32 paragraph (1) of the Information and Electronic Transaction Law (ITE Law).

Roy also asked the judge to declare the determination of the suspect made by the Metro Jaya Police through the Determination Letter Number S.Tap/S-4/1899/XI/2025/Ditreskrimum/Polda Metro Jaya dated November 7, 2025, invalid because it was considered contrary to the Constitutional Court's Decision Number 21/PUU-XII/2014 and the provisions of Article 184 paragraph (1) of the Code of Criminal Procedure (KUHAP).

In addition, Roy sued the legality of three investigation orders (Sprindik) which became the basis for the investigation of the case. He asked all the sprindik and its derivative documents, including the letter of determination of the suspect, to be declared invalid.

In his petition, Roy also asked the judge to restore his dignity, dignity, and reputation as before. He also asked the court to order the parties concerned to comply with the pretrial decision if his request is granted.

The verdict that will be read today will determine whether the determination of the suspect and the investigation process against Roy Suryo are considered to have been in accordance with the provisions of the law or otherwise.
