TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Youth and Sports Ministry has denied rumors that Imam Nahrawi would resign as youth and sports minister on Tuesday night.

"The rumor is totally unfounded," Secretary of Youth and Sports Minister Gatot Dewa Broto said.

Earlier in the day, the Corruption Court questioned Nahrawi as a witness on the performance of his personal assistant Miftahul Ulum and in the case of bribery related to grants for the Indonesian National Sports Committee (KONI).
