Martin Pratiwi Officially Becomes A Suspect, Ashanty: Thank God For The Good Name

JAKARTA - Ashanty's arrival to the General Crime Division of Polda Metro Jaya this afternoon finally yielded positive results. His report was addressed to Martin Pratiwi, with the case of defamation increasing his status as a suspect.

"Alhamdulillah, the cyber investigator from Polda Metro Jaya has made him (Martin) a suspect. It's been almost years since I've been reported to a civil case, it's been an appeal, finally our request has been granted (win)," Ashanty said when met by Voi.id, Friday, February 4, 2022 noon.

"This is also for the sake of our good name, pity for our children too. So to set things straight, now we just have to wait for the process," he added.

This feud began when in 2015 Ashanty and Martin collaborated to run a skincare business with the Ashanty Beauty Cream brand with a capital of IDR 475 million and agreed to split the profits in half. The two then began to disagree and Martin sued Ashanty on charges of default.

"Initially he was the one who sued me at the Tangerang District Court, we met, we were invited to mediation by the mediator but there was no consensus, he finally withdrew his lawsuit. Then he sued again at the Purwokerto District Court, we won too, then he appealed to an appeal, and our appeal was granted, " he explained.

As a result of this experience, Ashanty finally learned that in the future he would run a business with someone. "Alhamdulillah, until today we have never been like this when we work together. Maybe tomorrow tomorrow I will be more careful not to cooperate directly. This is also a lesson for me," said Ashanty

The next stage, the file stating Martin is a suspect will be transferred to the prosecutor's office. "We are waiting for further news, of course, from the authorities," concluded Indra KD Patria, as Ashanty's attorney.
