The findings, relating to three variables in digital image processing (translation, rotation, and lighting), have been submitted to investigators at Jakarta Metro Police's Criminal Investigation Directorate, and Sianipar has requested restorative justice proceedings. The investigation has resulted in eight suspects being charged with defamation, slander, hate speech, and electronic data manipulation under Indonesia's Information and Electronic Transactions Law.",
