Revealed: Vadel Badjideh's Condition, Busy with Quran Recitation and Missing His Nephew Deeply

Kapanlagi.com - Behind the smile he often shows after court sessions, Vadel Badjideh actually harbors a deep longing for his family. Vadel's condition was revealed directly by his two older siblings, Martin and Bintang Badjideh, after they testified at the South Jakarta District Court on Wednesday (6/8/2025).

The smile often seen on Vadel's face apparently has a special reason behind it. Martin suspects that the presence of family visiting him is the biggest source of strength and encouragement for his younger brother in this difficult situation.

"Maybe the smile I see now is because he sees me and Bintang, who usually are separated, together inside, that might be what makes him feel the support more. That’s what I know," said Martin.

The feeling of longing or homesickness is most deeply felt for his nephews, who are indeed very close to him. According to Martin, Vadel is very close to his son, so it is his nephew who always becomes the biggest point of longing.

"Yes, especially with the nephew. Because he is close to my son. So the one he always asks about is his nephew. That’s the point of longing," said Martin.

In fact, there was a sweet promise from Vadel to his nephew that he had not yet fulfilled before he got into this legal trouble. Martin shared that his brother had promised to buy a cat for the nephews, a plan that now has to be postponed.

"What Vadel promised was, for example, Bismillah, Insya Allah when it’s all over, Vadel wants to bring a cat for the nephews. At that time, he promised to buy it together, but then this incident happened, so he hasn’t had the chance," explained Martin.

As a result, Bintang admitted that he often has difficulty finding answers when the nephews keep asking about their beloved uncle's whereabouts. He and the family have to be clever in finding reasons so that the little children do not feel sad and continue to wait.

"Well, that's the hardest part, finding excuses for the nephews. It's not possible to say every day that the flight hasn't been confirmed; we say Kak Vadel is busy with work, he still has a lot of tasks," said Bintang.
