JAKARTA - Rachel Vennya has undergone her first examination regarding her escape from quarantine at Wisma Atlet Pademangan. After the examination, Rachel only apologized without explaining the case.

The celeb was checked with her boyfriend, Salim Nauderer, and her manager for about eight and a half hours.

"Salim and I (Salim Nauderer) would like to express our deepest apologies to all the people for our mistakes and mistakes that have disturbed the community. We are also now going through the applicable legal process," said Rachel Vennya, Thursday, October 21.

Rachel's explanation was limited to that. This is because the woman who is referred to as an influencer was silent when she was asked about the truth at the Wisma Atlet.

Previously, Rachel had stated that she had never been at the Athlete's House. However, a different statement was conveyed by the COVID-19 Task Force.

Rachel's lawyer, Indra Raharja, who was at his client's side at that time, immediately gave an answer to the question. He only said that everything Rachel knew had been passed on to the police.

"We also convey that. What is known, experienced, witnessed, has been conveyed," said Indra.

On the other hand, Indra said that in the examination of his client 35 questions were asked. All of these questions have been fully answered.

"Okay, so the examination parallels. Rachel herself has 35 questions. As previously stated, Rachel said that our clients are committed to getting things done quickly too. We are grateful that the police are both professionals in carrying out this investigation,” said Indra.

But Rachel Vennya's lawyer declined to reveal the contents of the police question. What is certain is that his client was asked about the chronology of the case of escaping quarantine from the Wisma Atlet.

"I will not convey the rest of the material here, but Rachel has conveyed things that are elementary and fundamental to the police," said Indra.

Rachel Vennya is known to have run away while undergoing quarantine at the Wisma Atlet COVID-19 Emergency Hospital (RSDC) after a vacation from abroad.

Kodam Jaya as the Command of the COVID-19 Integrated Joint Task Force delegated the case of Rachel Vennya's escape to the Police.

During the investigation process by the Jaya Regional Military Command, it was found that an individual member of the TNI who served in the Security Task Force at Soekarno Hatta Airport, Tangerang, Banten, allegedly arranged for the Rachel Vennya program to escape quarantine after returning from abroad.

Meanwhile, Kapendam Jaya Colonel Arh Herwin BS stated that two TNI personnel were involved in the escape of Rachel Vennya from Wisma Atlet. Both are members of the Joint Integrated Task Force.

"Yesterday's investigation was deepening. Indeed, there were two individuals who worked together," said Herwin to reporters, Thursday, October 21.

The two individuals had the initials FS and IG. Both come from different entities. Where, they served at Soekarno-Hatta Airport and Wisma Atlet Pademangan.

"The airport task force came from Koops AU Satu (FS). Then the one in Pademangan came from Wing Satu Paskhas (IG)," said Herwin.

Currently, the two TNI personnel have been returned to their respective units. Both will be questioned by the Military Police regarding their involvement in the Rachel Vennya case.

"Later, they will be examined by the Military Police in their original unit," said Herwin.
