JAKARTA - A traffic accident experienced by Ira Riswana's son, Abdul Malik Ibrahim, who was driving a Mercedes Benz car and hit a teenager on a motorcycle, ended in misfortune. Syamil, the teenager who collided with Malik, has died.

As a result of this incident, Ira said that her son was traumatized. Especially with the amount of news that shone on him. The wife of a high-ranking NTB Police said her son was not used to being exposed to so many people.

“What is certain is that he (Malik) is still traumatized. Until now, his wrist still hurts, his body still hurts, but he doesn't even dare to go to the doctor because he's afraid," said Ira Riswana when contacted by the VOI team on Monday, April 3.

"Not afraid or anything, when he met people (scared), yes my son's name is never overexposed. They only know the names of the children, they only know Ira's children and they have never been exposed," she continued.

Ira said he was so afraid of the attention of many people towards him, Malik did not even dare to go to school. The mother also has to ask for help from the child's friends to provide comfort.

"I know he actually said 'ma, I'm sorry', that's what really hit me. "I might not be able to pursue this dream of mine', he said," Ira said explaining Malik's words.

Ira also told how her son felt very guilty because he had troubled her and her husband. Even so, Ira is still grateful that her child is still afraid of what happened to her parents.

The artist, who started her career in the entertainment industry after winning the GADIS Cover event in 1994, also expressed her frustration with those who linked her child's accident to her husband, Kombes Abu Bakar Tertusi, who is currently serving at the West Nusa Tenggara Regional Police.

"I am hurt by several (parties), actually my husband is not involved. This is his son, not him. But this discussion has spread everywhere," she said.

Ira also hopes that no party will find fault in this accident case involving her child. She felt that nothing should have preceded the legal process currently being investigated by the police.

“I am typical of a fair person, if yes, yes, no, then no. In this situation, we cannot look for what is wrong and right at this time, because there is no police release yet," concluded Ira Riswana.
