JAKARTA - The Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police has stopped investigating the alleged trademark case reported by the wife of Juragan 99, Shandy Purnamasari, against Putra Siregar. The reason is that the results of the case trial are not sufficient evidence.

"Wednesday, March 16, 2022, a case was held, it was concluded that there was insufficient evidence, the investigation was stopped," said Head of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Public Relations Division Kombes Gatot Repli Handoko to VOI, Tuesday, March 22.

In fact, the status of the case was upgraded to an investigation on September 29, 2021.

One of the grounds for stopping the handling of the case was the decision of the Directorate General of Intellectual Property (KI) of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights dated December 20, 2021.

In that decision, Putra Siregar's appeal regarding the cosmetic logo was granted. Therefore, the Director General of Intellectual Property at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights issued a PS Glow brand certificate.

The report was stated in LP/B/484/VIII/2021/SPKT/Bareskrim Polri, dated August 13, 2021.

In the report, Putra Siregar and two other parties were suspected of violating trademarks. Because, Putra Siregar's cosmetic logo resembles that of Shandy Purnamasari.

"Reported Putra Siregar, PT PSglow and PT Eka Jaya," said Gatot.

In that report, Putra Siregar was reported with Law Number 20 of 2016 concerning Marks and Geographical Indications Article 100 paragraphs 1, 2, and Article 101 paragraphs 1, 2, and Article 102.
