Dr Richard Lee is a suspect in the case of illegal access to Instagram accounts. This case became a scene because of the video footage of the police arresting Dr. Richard Lee while being blocked by his wife.
Then what is the illegal access case related to Richard Lee? At the root of the problem, Richard Lee deleted a post on Instagram which had actually been confiscated by the police through the South Jakarta District Court regarding the defamation report filed by Kartika Putri.
“Last December, there was a report of a person with the initials K reporting that the doctor RL was here about defamation in the drrichard_lee account.

"This happened illegally access and theft by someone then an investigation and investigation was carried out. "Based on the results of the investigation, it was found that the illegal access and theft in the account that became evidence was carried out by RL's brother (Richard Lee)," said Yusri.
Polda Metro Jaya emphasized that the handling of this illegal access case was different from the investigation of the good pollution that was reported by Kartika Putri.
