Actress and social media personality Erika Carlina has officially retracted a police report she previously filed against Giovanny Surya Saputra, widely known as DJ Panda. The complaint, which alleged threats made through electronic media, was initially lodged at the Jakarta Metropolitan Police (Polda Metro Jaya). Confirming this development, AKBP Iskandarsyah, Head of the Renakta Sub-directorate of Ditreskrimum Polda Metro Jaya, stated that his department received the withdrawal application on Friday, December 19. “Indeed, the individual concerned submitted the report withdrawal. The letter arrived last Friday,” Iskandarsyah informed reporters when contacted on Monday, December 22.
Reason for Erika Carlina Withdrawing Report Against DJ Panda
Elaborating on the decision, Iskandarsyah revealed that Erika Carlina chose to withdraw the complaint following a mutual agreement between both parties to seek an amicable resolution. Consequently, Erika Carlina and DJ Panda have jointly applied for the case to be settled through the restorative justice mechanism. “They have conducted mediation outside [the police station] and reached an agreement. We are now processing the case for restorative justice,” Iskandarsyah explained, outlining the ongoing procedure.
The report, originally filed by Erika Carlina against Giovanni Saputra, also known as DJ Panda, on July 19, concerned allegations of threats made via electronic media. The official police registration number for this complaint was LP/B/5027/VII/2025/SPKT/POLDA METRO JAYA. A key detail within the report highlighted DJ Panda’s alleged action of referring to Erika as a “psychopath,” which was a significant point of contention.
The initial complaint against DJ Panda cited potential violations of several significant laws. These included Article 335 of the Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP) concerning coercion, and/or Article 28 paragraph (2) in conjunction with Article 45 of the Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE) Law, which addresses illegal electronic communication.
