Indonesian entertainer and entrepreneur Ruben Onsu has reached a formal settlement in a legal case involving alleged fraud and embezzlement. The investigation, conducted by the South Jakarta Metro Police, centered on a failed healthy food business investment totaling Rp3.5 billion involving a complainant identified as DM. Following a mediation process in Jakarta on August 31, 2026, Onsu agreed to repay the full principal loss of Rp3.5 billion to DM. As a result of this agreement, the complainant withdrew the police report. Onsu attributed the delay in fulfilling his financial obligations to difficulties in liquidating personal assets due to current economic conditions, noting the experience served as a “valuable lesson.” By September 23, 2026, the South Jakarta Metro Police officially terminated the investigation. Following the restorative justice process, a notice of termination of investigation (SP3) was issued. Onsu’s legal counsel, Machi Achmad, confirmed that the SP3 has been submitted to the Chairperson of the South Jakarta District Court. This termination revokes Onsu’s status as a suspect and, according to Achmad, ensures the matter cannot be legally prosecuted again. As part of the settlement, Onsu paid the Rp3.5 billion in principal compensation without interest or penalties. Amidst these legal developments, reports indicate Onsu has expressed personal exhaustion regarding ongoing life challenges, with suggestions that he briefly considered leaving the entertainment industry due to the cumulative pressure of various personal and professional issues. Separately, Onsu and Aditya Gumay, Director of PT Smaradana Pro, have reported a different dispute to the Jakarta Metropolitan Police. This case involves a film project titled NIA, where PT Smaradana Pro claims losses of Rp15 billion due to alleged embezzlement and copyright violations. Onsu served as an Executive Producer on the project, and the dispute reportedly stems from a lack of access to crucial Netflix distribution contracts.
