Minola Sebayang as the lawyer for Keenan Nasution and Rudi Pekerti, revealed the reason why his clients decided to withdraw the cassation petition for alleged copyright infringement of the song "Nuansa Bening" by Vidi Aldiano.
"On the grounds of empathy and humanity, my client asked that the process be stopped," Minola told reporters in a virtual interview, Wednesday, March 25.
Minola explained that the cassation had been registered with the Supreme Court, after the Central Jakarta Commercial Court rejected Keenan and Rudi's lawsuit against Vidi.
However, after Vidi died on March 7, Keenan and Rudi decided to end this legal case.
"Then on March 20 (March) we said that we would stop the ongoing cassation process and we could stop it because Article 31 of the Law (Supreme Court) allows it," said Minola.
"Then on March 20 (March) we also said that we had revoked or asked for the process to be stopped for humanitarian reasons," he added.
"So, as of March 20 yesterday, the problem of 'Nuansa Bening' in the cassation process should have stopped," concluded Keenan and Rudi's lawyers.
