JAKARTA - The news of the divorce of the couple Fairuz A Rafiq and Sonny Septian is confirmed as a false or hoax news. Angry with the massive spread of slander, their lawyer, Minola Sebayang, gave a firm ultimatum to dozens of social media accounts that spread the news.
"We warn the accounts - there are many accounts, more than 10 accounts that spread slanderous news - to immediately delete, take down any news related to Fairuz's divorce with Sonny," said Minola Sebayang when met in South Jakarta, Thursday, April 16.
Minola emphasized that the family gave a limited time for account owners to show their good faith. If not, legal proceedings will be taken immediately without mercy.
"We ask for 3x24 hours to immediately take down, delete all the news and information, and also apologize. If not, then maybe we will face the law," he said.
Not to play around, Minola has prepared a legal analysis using the ITE Law to the new Criminal Code to trap the perpetrators. The threat of punishment awaiting these hoax spreaders is quite heavy, reaching years.
"In the new Criminal Code, Article 433 has a threat of 9 months, Article 434 has a threat of 4 years for defamation and defamation. And Article 263 for the dissemination of hoax news, the threat is 6 years in prison," said Minola detailing the legal basis to be used.
The lawyer admitted that he had collected data on the account owner and tracked it digitally.
"We have tracked all kinds of IP. We just want good faith from the owners of the accounts so that they immediately realize it," he concluded.
