Jakarta (ANTARA) - Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka has asked President Prabowo Subianto for an opportunity to prove the validity of his diploma through legal proceedings at the State Administrative Court (PTUN).

Speaking at a press conference at the Presidential Palace complex in Jakarta on Tuesday, State Secretary Minister Prasetyo Hadi said Gibran had expressed his intention to resign to Prabowo during a meeting that lasted two and a half hours on Tuesday morning.

"However, we also want to clarify that it is not true that the president rejected or expressed opposition to that intention during the meeting," Prasetyo said.

"During the discussion, the president offered a number of suggestions, while Vice President Gibran Rakabuming also asked for an opportunity to prove the validity of the documents he holds through proceedings at the State Administrative Court," he added.

Gibran's resignation proposal came amid developments at the Constitutional Court and the Supreme Court concerning questions over his diploma certificate.

Previously, the Constitutional Court ruled that it could not disqualify Gibran as vice president, although the proceedings had found no convincing evidence regarding his diploma or an equivalent education certificate.

The Supreme Court subsequently granted a cassation appeal concerning the annulment of the validity of a certificate recognizing Gibran Rakabuming Raka's senior high school (SMA) education equivalency.
