Just Won the Cassation, Agnez Mo is Sued Again by Ari Bias for Rp4.9 Billion

Kapanlagi.com - Shocking news comes again from the multitalented singer, Agnes Monica Muljoto, or better known as Agnez Mo. Just recently relieved after her cassation request was granted by the Supreme Court (MA) regarding the dispute over the song Bilang Saja, she now has to face a new chapter in her legal feud.

Previously, the MA ruling had canceled Agnez Mo's obligation to pay royalties amounting to IDR 1.5 billion to the songwriter, Ari Bias. However, this conflict is not over yet as Ari Bias has filed a new civil lawsuit against her at the Central Jakarta District Court.

The spokesperson for the Central Jakarta District Court, Sunoto, confirmed the existence of this new lawsuit. This lawsuit targets not only Agnez Mo but also the event organizers where the diva performed some time ago.

"Yes, it's true. A copyright infringement lawsuit No. 136/Pdt.Sus-HKI/Cipta/2025/PN Niaga Jkt.Pst has been filed," said Sunoto when met at his office on Monday (1/12/2025).

In this latest lawsuit, Agnez Mo is referred to as Co-Defendant I. Meanwhile, the main target or Defendant is PT Anika Bintang Gading, also known as Holywings.

"The parties involved in this case are Ari Sapta Hernawan or Ari Bias as the Plaintiff, against PT Anika Bintang Gading (Holywings) as the Defendant. Agnes Monica as Co-Defendant I," explained Sunoto.
