MY allegedly arranged for him to become a member of the panel in the reporting case, even during the trial, MY invited the reporter to get married. Because he wanted his divorce to be decided quickly, the reporter then agreed to this. After the divorce verdict of the reporter was approved, not long ago, MY and the reporter married independently. In his defense, MY admitted that he had indeed met the reporter before the trial of the divorce case of the complainant accidentally.

MY also said that he had refused to become a member of the panel of judges in the reported case, but because of the request of the chairman of the Tulungagung Religious Court, MY then agreed. During the trial, MY also admitted that he invited the reporter to marry serially and have a child from the results of the relationship. After that, MY informed his first wife that he had married a second time at the same time asking for permission.

After obtaining permission from his first wife, MY then took care of polygamy licensing to the local office on the grounds that his first wife was sick and officially married.

According to the complainant's confession, after one day of officially marriage, MY disappeared without news and did not fulfill his promise before getting married. Then, the reporter reported MY's actions to KY in 2021.
