Richard Lee, facing allegations of consumer violations, was granted a request by the Tangerang District Court to change his detention status to house arrest. His legal team argued for this change citing humanitarian reasons, his health, and the approaching end of his detention period. The defense also highlighted discrepancies in the prosecution’s indictment regarding Lee’s presence at specific locations.

Following the court’s decision, Lee’s lawyer, Faizal Hafied, defended the suspension of detention against objections from the complainant, known as Dokter Detektif (Doktif). Hafied asserted that the request followed legal mechanisms and was necessitated by Lee’s need for outpatient recovery. He further denied allegations of bribery, maintaining that all legal procedures were strictly followed and noting that the case involved no physical harm or material loss to the victim.
