\u201cI received notification through my e-court account from the Supreme\nCourt. Dated 30 October 2026. In case number 742\/K\/TUN\/2026, the ruling\ngrants the cassation appeal,\u201d Subhan said, as quoted by CNN\nIndonesia.<\/p>\n
In the case, Subhan made three requests: that the claim be granted in\nfull; that Gibran\u2019s education equivalency certificate be declared\ninvalid; and that the document be withdrawn from its holder, the\nDirector-General of General and Special Education at the Ministry of\nPrimary and Secondary Education.<\/p>\n
The ruling was also announced on Instagram by the claimant\u2019s\nassociate, former Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights Denny\nIndrayana.<\/p>\n
