JAKARTA \u2013 The controversy surrounding allegations of forged diploma\ncredentials belonging to Indonesia\u2019s seventh president, Joko Widodo,\ncontinues to develop.<\/p>\n
Amid an ongoing public debate, several parties implicated in the\nalleged diploma forgery case are pursuing restorative justice\nproceedings one by one.<\/p>\n
The latest development comes from digital forensics researcher Rismon\nSianipar, who claims to have made new findings related to the Jokowi\ndiploma controversy. These findings are reportedly potentially different\nfrom the conclusions he previously detailed in his book, Jokowi\u2019s White\nPaper.<\/p>\n
According to Rismon, the new findings relate to digital image\nprocessing analysis comprising three main variables: translation,\nrotation, and lighting. He also stressed that the research was conducted\nindependently and was not influenced by other parties, including Roy\nSuryo or Tifauzia Tyassuma.<\/p>\n
\u201cOnce again, this is not a matter of liking or disliking, hating or\nnot hating\u2014this is about scientific work. And a researcher or scientific\nworker must base their conclusions on their findings, not because I\ndislike someone,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
Amid these developments, Rismon also submitted a request for case\nresolution through the restorative justice mechanism to investigators.\n\u201cSo a few days ago, RHS and his legal counsel submitted a request for\nrestorative justice facilitation to the investigators. And we are\nworking to facilitate the request submitted by the suspect RHS,\u201d said\nIman.<\/p>\n
Previously, two suspects from the first cluster of the alleged Jokowi\ndiploma forgery case\u2014Eggi Sudjana and Damai Hari Lubis\u2014also pursued\nrestorative justice proceedings. \u201cYes, restorative justice has been\nsubmitted to investigators (last week),\u201d Iman stated during a press\nconference on Monday (12 January 2026).<\/p>\n
The restorative justice request was also submitted by Jokowi\u2019s legal\nrepresentatives as the reporting party in this case. Metro Jaya Police\nPublic Relations Head Kombes Budi Hermanto confirmed that the request\nhad been delivered to investigators.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/suspected-parties-in-jokowi-diploma-case-pursue-restorative-justice-one-by-one-1773274026", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
