JAKARTA - The first Miss Universe Indonesia (MUID) 2023 event has stored stories that are still in the public spotlight today. There are allegations that the body checking process or body examination of finalists is not natural.

Rizky Ananda, a former Provincial Director of Miss Universe Bali, said that finalists must take off their clothes in front of the three men who witnessed.

"So the children (the Miss Universefinalist) were shocked, they felt shocked when they were in a small booth in the ballroom, only the banners and clothes hangers were covered. They were told to open everything. And inside there were men, there were 3 men," said Rizky Ananda in Mampang Prapatan, South Jakarta on Wednesday, August 9.

Rio Motret, who has left his position as Visual Director of Miss Universe Indonesia, stated that the finalists were photographed naked. He appointed one of the MUID officials with the position of Chief Operating Officer or COO as the culprit.

"A representative from Miss Universe (who took pictures), namely COO, her position, a girl. She became a girl who abused girls," said Rio Motret.

Meanwhile, Eldwen Wang, the former CEO of Miss Universe Indonesia, admitted that he did not know anything about the body checking agenda.

Eldwen admitted that he and Rio Motret were not at the location when the body checking was carried out. Moreover, it is said that the body checking agenda is not in the composition of the event.

"What is clear is that we both don't know about this problem because there is no body checking schedule in the runway," said Eldwen Wang.

"We are also not at the location, the one who took the picture was a woman," said Rio Motret.

Furthermore, Rio Motret also responded to Poppy Capella's confession as a National Director who was not aware of any body checking agenda. Rio confirmed that he had evidence that Poppy Capella was aware of the agenda.

"It seems that there is no initiative from Mbak PC for communication with us. He even issued a statement saying he didn't know there was an incident. We have proof that he knows," concluded Rio Motret.
