"I was devastated when I heard my child's confession," said the victim's mother in her statement, Tuesday, June 17.
The victim's family attorney, Rio Saputro, stated that his party had tried to mediate amicably on June 4, 2025, but did not reach an agreement.

Rio emphasized that legal assistance is provided to ensure legal protection for victims and their families.
He also appreciated the support from LPSK, KPAI, and UPTD PPA South Tangerang City, including the professionalism of investigators from the South Tangerang Police PPA Unit.
