Guard Atta Halilintar (ist)

JAKARTA - Atta Halilintar's bodyguard's arrogant action received a lot of blasphemy. At first, Atta Halilintar and Aurel Hermansyah took the stairs and were accompanied by several bodyguards. Then, the man suddenly pointed his hand and threatened the media crew.

"Please don't shoot me, I was on television, (if) someone shot me, I killed one person, yes," said▁jiwa Atta, quoted from the Instagram account @jktnews quoted Friday, September 6.

The post received harsh criticism from netizens. They were busy blaspheming Atta's bodyguard after threatening to kidnap journalists one by one.

"Don't be arrogant, bro, if it's still dirt, just goku who stepped on the clouds isn't arrogant," commented the account @daengsto****.

"No school or not studying? You think kidnapping is not a violation of the law. Only muscles are encouraged, small brains," wrote the account @interista11***.

Knowing that he had gone viral and was being blasphemed by netizens, Atta's bodyguard finally opened his voice. Through the video, the bodyguard apologized to the media crew. The video was shared on Sunan Kalijaga's lawyer's Instagram account.

"I apologize to my media colleagues, I feel wrong for saying that and once again I apologize," said the bodyguard.

"I apologize to my media colleagues, I feel wrong for my words Maybe I am words reflex," he continued.

He emphasized that the statement that was considered threatening came out because it was carried away by Atta and Aurel returning from the South Jakarta Police.

"And apologize to my media colleagues, I admit that I was wrong and I apologize profusely. Thank you," he said.

Separately, Atta also claimed to have given a stern warning to the so-called bodyguard.

"My personal wife and I apologize... I give a stern warning and maybe to learn to be a better person in the future," Atta wrote in the comments column uploaded by Instagram @lambe_turah, on Thursday, September 5.

Atta Halilintar admitted that the person who threatened reporters was not an employee and only liked to visit his residence. "He is neither part of my employee nor has a cooperation contract with me, but does like to play with our place," said Atta. "Once again, I apologize physically," he concluded.
