“Of course it has been discussed with the family,” said Debi to reporters before the trial at Bandung City PA, Wednesday morning.
However, Debi did not elaborate further on who the families involved were or how the extended family responded to the divorce process.He emphasized that his party was only focused on carrying out the trial in accordance with legal provisions.
Regarding Atalia’s absence this Wednesday, Debi answered that her client had official activities that could not be missed.
“Mrs. Atalia told us that she really respects this trial process. However, due to official activities, she was unable to attend and represent us as legal counsel,” said Debi.
He explained that the registration or filing of the divorce suit was carried out by his party on behalf of Atalia through the e-Court system to the Bandung City Religious Court.All of this, he said, was carried out last week until finally the first trial was held today at the Bandung City Religious Court.
“In preparation for today’s trial, of course we have been preparing since last week, we started submitting activities via e-court. And today the first trial is scheduled,” explained Debi.
Regarding the divorce lawsuit, Debi emphasized that her party could not convey it openly.This refers to the provisions of Article 80 paragraph 2 of the Religious Courts Law which states that divorce cases are private.
“We cannot convey the material of the lawsuit because it is a private domain. We respect the applicable regulations,” he said.
Separately, one of RK’s attorneys, Wenda Aluwi, said he was present to represent his client at the initial trial.RK, he said, could not attend in person because he was out of town.
“Today Mr. Ridwan Kamil cannot attend because he still has activities outside the city,” Wenda told reporters at PA Bandung.
Even though he was not physically present, Wenda emphasized that his client still respected the ongoing legal process.The presence of a legal representative, he said, is RK’s compliance with the lawsuit that has been registered in court.
“The message from Mr. RK is to respect each other’s legal process. There has already been a lawsuit, and today we are here to represent him,” said Wenda.
Atalia and Ridwan Kamil are known to have married on December 7 1996.
From that marriage, the two of them were blessed with two children, namely the late Emmeril Kahn Mumtadz and Camillia Laetitia Azzzahra.In 2020, the couple also adopted a boy named Arkana Aidan Misbach.
Previously, Public Relations of the Bandung Religious Court, Ikhwan Sofyan, explained that according to procedural law, the appointed panel of judges would summon the parties to attend the initial hearing, namely the mediation process.Determining whether the trial will be held openly or closed is the authority of the panel of judges.
According to him, in the mediation process the parties are in principle required to be present in person.However, under certain conditions, attendance can be delegated to a legal representative.
