TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Lawyer of Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Ahok), Fifi Lety Indra, asserted a chance for Ahok and Veronica reconciliation has been closed. She said mediation during the trial will not happen.
"I don’t know, only God can answer," said Fifi, who is also Ahok`s sister, at the North Jakarta District Court, Wednesday, March 7.
The divorce trial of Ahok and Veronica has entered witness examination phase. The mediation during the trial was not done since Veronica and Ahok refused to attend and handed over the decision to the panels of judges.
