“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 to journalists before the trial at PA Bandung City.
Apart from that, he said, his client also prays and hopes for the best.
“The demand itself is of course, hopefully Mrs. Atalia will just pray for each other. Hopefully there will be the best for Mrs. [Atalia] and Mr. [RK],” he said.
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.
When asked about an issue that has recently been widely discussed by the public and is linked to the lawsuit, Debi said that this had already been included in the case material and could not be explained further.
In the same place, at a separate time, one of Ridwan Kamil’s attorneys, Wenda Aluwi, said that 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.
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.
Wenda also revealed that Ridwan Kamil appointed a large legal team to handle the divorce case.
“There are a total of eight legal representatives,” he said.
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.
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.
If Atalia is a member of Commission VIII DPR from the Golkar faction which is in charge of religious and social affairs, Ridwan Kamil is in the central management of the Golkar Party.
When he joined Golkar at the end of his term as Governor of West Java in early 2023, Ridwan Kamil received the position of Deputy General Chair for Voter Mobilization under the leadership of General Chair Airlangga Hartarto.
Then, in the era of General Chairman Bahlil Lahadalia’s leadership, Ridwan Kamil was appointed as Chairman of the Golkar DPP for Political Policy and Domestic Government in early November 2024.
