Bandung Mayor Muhammad Farhan stated that he was ready to face a lawsuit filed by the defendant in the Bandung Zoo land corruption case, Raden Bisma Bratakusuma, along with five other people who were sent to him regarding the polemic of zoo management.
"If that's the civil realm. They just want to fight the law. I was also reprimanded yesterday by the High Prosecutor's Office to prevent legal resistance that could prolong and consume energy. Then we will take firmer action," said Farhan in Bandung, Antara, Monday, September 8.
As a firm step, Farhan said the Bandung City Government would cooperate with the Ragunan Jakarta Zoo and the Surabaya Zoo for animal welfare management during the closing period due to management disputes.
"The form is still waiting for the agreement to be completed. As long as the dispute is not over, we will not open it first," he said.
He emphasized that since August 6, 2025, Bandung Zoo's operations have been officially closed based on the stipulation of the West Java High Prosecutor's Office, which entrusted confiscated assets to the Bandung City Government.
"We want to ensure that parties who do not have legal standing on land owned by the Bandung City Government may no longer take economic advantage," he said.
The lawsuit numbered case 377/Pdt.G/2025/PN Bdg, which was filed by six people, namely Raden Bisma Bratakoesoema, Nina Kurnia Hikmawati, Mohamad Ariodillah, Sri Rejeki, Sri, and Gantira Bratakusuma.
Raden Bisma Bratakoesoema is known to be undergoing trial for the Bandung Zoo corruption case. In the document, it was also stated that there was an plaintiff named Sri whose name was very synonymous with one of the suspects in the Bandung Zoo corruption case, whose full name is Sri Devi.
This case was registered at the Bandung District Court trial on Thursday, August 21 with the classification of cases against civil law.
