Case Has Implicated Eight Suspects, Some File for Restorative Justice
This case itself is not a new case. The Jakarta Metropolitan Police have named eight suspects since November 7, 2025. According to official police statements, the eight suspects were divided into two clusters and charged with articles related to defamation, slander, incitement, hate speech, and electronic data manipulation.
In its course, some of the suspects pursued restorative justice. ANTARA previously reported that Rismon Hasiholan Sianipar also filed a petition for restorative justice to investigators in March 2026. Prior to that, the Jakarta Metropolitan Police had received similar petitions from Eggi Sudjana and Damai Hari Lubis. In other words, on the one hand, this case continues to proceed in certain clusters, but on the other hand, there are also efforts to resolve it through restorative mechanisms for some suspects.
Aiman's summons at this point shows that the police have not closed the possibility of further investigating the case, especially against parties deemed to know the context of the issue's dissemination in the public sphere. Therefore, public attention will now be focused on two things: first, what material information will be extracted from Aiman; and second, whether the investigation into media broadcasts will affect the direction of the case files being compiled by the police.
