Threat Information Circulates on Social Media

Previously, several social media accounts posted information claiming the victim was intimidated following the kicking incident.

For instance, the Threads account @naomiassread claimed to have received information from a friend, referred to as the victim.

"Update from the victim (who happens to be my friend) — there are threats from the mall. She is scared and is even considering not continuing the legal process," the account wrote.

Similar information was also shared by the Threads account @pratiwiatmaa.

This account claimed to know the victim and said she received threats from Senayan City. It also alleged that the victim’s friend’s number was distributed to someone posing as a police officer, but suspected to be an impersonator.

These posts then spread across social media.

“GUYS, I HAPPEN TO KNOW THE VICTIM. She’s being threatened by Senayan City, then my friend’s number was circulated and given to someone (claiming to be a cop) but probably a fake cop. PLEASE GUYS, MONITOR THIS CASE,” the account stated.
