According to Zaki R., a minor is legally not competent to perform legal actions on their own, thus the presence of a legally recognized guardian is a necessity, even if it is their biological father.

"For example, we have a child under 18 years old and 21 years old, because in the law it states that a minor, if they are to perform a legal act, must be represented by their guardian," explained Zaki R. when met at the South Jakarta Religious Court on Monday (15/10/2025).

Furthermore, Zaki R. explained that the court's decision will serve as a strong legal basis to prove Idung's status as a legitimate guardian. This will facilitate all bureaucratic processes that will be encountered.

"Is this child really Bang Aji's, with Bang Aji as the guardian? What is the basis for that? There must be a court decision, that's it," he added.
