The East Jakarta District Court has accepted the preliminary objection filed by Tifauziah Tyassuma, who is accused of forging President Joko Widodo's diploma. The court declared the prosecutor's indictment imprecise and void, effectively halting the case's progression to the evidence stage.

For that, we express our sincere gratitude for everything that has been done so that justice and truth can stand tall in this country.

Tifauziah, also known as Dr. Tifa, welcomed the decision, attributing it to her and her colleagues' efforts to uphold justice and truth. "We express our sincere gratitude for everything that has been done so that justice and truth can stand tall in this country," she stated at the court. She also credited divine will for the outcome.

And more than that, that all of this is the will of Allah SWT.

This ruling has strengthened Tifauziah's resolve to pursue the truth regarding the authenticity of Jokowi's diploma, aiming to prevent such controversies from affecting future presidents and officials. Her colleague, KMRT Roy Suryo, also involved in a similar case, expressed joy and confidence that this verdict could serve as a precedent for his own legal proceedings.

This case is the same as the one I received, the process is the same, the charges are the same, so God willing, if the law is straight, this will not only be a precedent but jurisprudence.

Therefore, the examination of the case cannot proceed to the evidence stage.
