A video containing a statement from the police regarding the confidentiality of Ustadz Maaher's illness is embedded in her Twitter post.

"The question is, why did Soni Ernata die? This is due to illness. I cannot tell you what the illness is due to a sensitive matter", said Head of Public Relations at the National Police Headquarters Inspector, General Argo Yuwono in the video.

"This could be related to the good name of the deceased's family. So we cannot convey clearly what the illness is because it is too sensitive", he said.

"It could tarnish the good name of the family", added Argo.

Previously, various rumors regarding the illness that Ustadz Maaher At Thuwailibi or Soni Eranata had suffered until he died was still emerging. The National Police has confirmed that the cause of death was due to illness, but they did not explain what kind of illness that Ustadz Maaher suffered because they want to maintain the late's good name.

The National Police appealed to the public not to easily believe the news that was circulating. This is because these reports cannot be accounted for.

"Regarding the death of Ustadz Maaher, it has been explained by the police that he died due to illness", said the Police Public Relations Division, General Rusdi Hartono, Tuesday, February 9.

"The public should not easily believe irresponsible news. If there is any doubt, ask the competent party", he continued.

In fact, Rusdi also reminded the public not to spread those rumors. Because, later on, this could lead to the spread of false information or hoaxes that lead to crimes.

"And don't spread fake news, because it is a criminal act", he said.
