JAKARTA - The deep sorrow of Epy Kusnandar's family was slightly disturbed by the incident of a violation of privacy which made the deceased's son, Damar Rizal Marzuki, inflamed.

Through his Instagram Story upload some time ago, Damar had expressed his frustration because there were parties who came to his biological mother (Epy's ex-wife) in Garut without permission.

Damar explained the situation. He regretted that there was a media that carried out "tilas" at his mother's house in Garut, which incidentally was not a public figure. This caused panic because the mother was not used to facing the camera spotlight and questions from journalists.

"My mother doesn't understand anything about the media. Suddenly she was approached, asked questions, finally panicked. The effect was people so they found out who Damar's biological mother was, until the home address was sought by netizens. That's what made me have to act," said Damar in the South Jakarta area, Wednesday, December 10.

He emphasized that his actions were not to cover up, but to protect his ordinary mother in the entertainment world.

Karina Ranau, Epy's wife at this time, also felt the same disappointment. He regretted that there were a handful of relatives or people who claimed to be close to the deceased, who actually took advantage of this moment of grief to appear in the media or "social massage" (pansos) by delivering journalists to inaccurate sources.

"I'm quite disappointed. The tomb is still wet, it's only been a second day, how come it's already busy exploring it? In fact, again, the media met with the children's mothers who didn't know anything. We should have discussed with our nuclear family first," said Karina.

Karina emphasized that her relationship with Epy's ex-wife was very good and there was no problem. However, dragging a person who has no interest in the media spotlight in the midst of mourning is considered very unethical and burdens a grieving family.

He also poked at people who suddenly appeared on podcasts or television, claiming to know the figure of Epy Kusnandar, but provide invalid information. According to Karina, the action was very sad and hurt the family who knew the journey of the deceased from difficulty to joy.

"If you want to appear, want to go viral, not with this frill. Respect us who are still grieving first. The accurate source is us, our wives and children who accompanied him until his last breath," Karina added.
