Legal Counsel Says There Is Still A Possibility Of Referring Between Ruben Onsu And Sarwendah

JAKARTA - Sarwendah's attorney, Chris Sam Siwu, tried to convey the possibility of reconciliation between his client and his husband, Ruben Onsu. As a lawyer, Chris admitted that he could not reveal in detail the possibility of referring his client because it was limited by a power of attorney.

"No like this, we are attorneys who are indeed limited by power, power of attorney. So our power of attorney only explains this process both at trial and outside the trial and there is a code of ethics that concerns it. So we can't convey it at all," said Chris Sam Siwu in the Kasablanka area, South Jakarta, Tuesday, July 23.

Even so, Chris explained that with Sarwendah's direct statement regarding his desire to divorce, a reconciliation opportunity still exists.

"What is certain is that with our client not yet showing up in the media, it means that the possibility of reconciliation is still there. Unless our client has said 'no, I don't want to reconcile', that's different," he explained.

"But with our clients not being present in the media, it doesn't mean that it still exists, it's still possible what is impossible," he said.

Chris further added that his client's absence was tried not to speed up the trial but because there was no content of this lawsuit which was denied.

"But if it's a problem we talk about, there are also those who say that their lawyer or Sarwendah is not present and will speed up the divorce process, because there is nothing in it that we deny, it's not a matter of speeding up," he said.

"We didn't come to speed things up but we didn't come because we didn't have anything to deny," he said.
