JAKARTA - Dewi Perssik's decision to report a number of social media accounts was not without reason. His attorney, Sandy Arifin, revealed that the fake news had disturbed the peace of his client and family.

Even though this issue has been circulating for several weeks, legal steps will only be taken now. "Yes, because the news is still there, you know," explained Sandy regarding the reasons for reporting at the South Jakarta Police, Tuesday, November 25.

Dewi Perssik and her family continue to accept questions related to the issue of the artist's expulsion. This creates discomfort, even though he feels he has never done anything he is accused of.

The biggest impact of this news is the contamination of Dewi Perssik's good name as a public figure. "Yes, definitely a good name, yes. The good name is family," said Sandy.

Sandy's colleague, Wijayono Hadi Sukrisno, added that the image of a public figure is very vulnerable to negative news. "Otomatically, his image in the eyes of the community will be ugly. Even though nothing has happened at all," said Kris.

Dewi Perssik's party felt aggrieved because this massive and untrue news could damage the reputation she had built. Therefore, legal channels are considered the most appropriate way to solve it.

Previously, Sandy Arifin stated that his client was determined to take this case to the criminal realm. "I don't think we will take it back. Because he said he wanted to make a report," he said.

Kris also gave a strong warning to the account owners. "When we are given power, it means they must be careful," he said.

Currently, Dewi Perssik has pocketed at least three social media accounts as a target for initial reports. However, this number can increase along with the emergence of new accounts that spread similar narratives.

Regarding the final goal of this report, Sandy Arifin stated that he would see the good faith of the reported party. The deterrent effect is one of the main considerations in the legal process later.

Although in the previous case, Dewi Perssik chose to make peace, this time the legal team could not confirm the same thing. "Yes, we'll see, what kind of good faith, what kind of deterrent effect," said Sandy.

The official report is planned to be made in the middle of next week, after Dewi Perssik has free time. This decisive step was taken to provide lessons so that no one would arbitrarily defame her.
