JAKARTA - Polda Metro Jaya has named Nikita Mirzani as a suspect in a case of alleged threats and extortion. The case was known to have been reported by Reza Gladys.
"It is true, NM's sister has been named a suspect by investigators from the Metro Jaya Police Directorate," said Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Ade Ary Syam Indradi to reporters, Thursday, February 20.
In that case, investigators also named IM who is an assistant to Nikita Mirzani as a suspect. The determination of the two was confirmed to have been based on sufficient evidence.
"Based on sufficient evidence and based on the results of the case title," said Ade.
Regarding the series of incidents of alleged extortion or threats, when referring to the report made by Reza Gladys, it started with a problem between the reporter and Nikita Mirzani.
The artist, known as Nikmir, is said to have slandered Reza Gladys's skincare products and badminton products.
"Sister NM vilified the victim's good name and products through NM's sister TikTok live," he said.
Then, Reza Gladys contacted the assistant from Nikta Mirzani to two Whatsapp numbers on November 14, 2024. The goal is to stay in touch.
However, the response received was negative. Because, it is said that there is a statement that contains threats. The reported party will convey something to social media if they don't get money from Reza Gladys.
"So the response from the reported party is the threat of speaking up to social media if the gathering does not make money and the reported party asks for a sum of IDR 5 billion as a mouth-to-mouth money," said Ade.
Fearing the threat, Reza Gladys was investigated for fulfilling the request. He gave up on a total of IDR 4 billion. The handover of money is done in stages.
"Because the victim felt threatened and afraid, on November 14, 2024, the victim transferred funds of Rp. 2 billion to an account in certain names under the direction of the reported party," said Ade.
"On the direction of the reported victim, the victim gave cash amounting to Rp. 2 billion. For this incident, the victim felt that he had been blackmailed and suffered a loss of Rp. 4 billion," he continued.
