Richard Lee Allowed to Go Home After 12 Hours of Questioning at Polda Metro Jaya

The renowned beauty doctor and influencer, Richard Lee, can finally breathe a sigh of relief. After undergoing a marathon examination for about 12 hours at the Metro Jaya Police, he was allowed to go home.

This examination was related to a report filed by Doktif alias Doctor Detective. Richard was reported for allegedly violating the Consumer Protection Law and the Health Law, where his skincare products were accused of making excessive claims or overclaims based on the complainant's independent lab tests.

Richard was seen leaving the Special Criminal Investigation Directorate (Ditreskrimsus) building on Thursday night. Although he looked tired, Richard still took the time to greet the media crew who had faithfully waited for him from morning until night. He appreciated the patience of the journalists, especially during the month of Ramadan.

"Thank you so much to all of you. Actually, I didn't want to make a statement, but you have been here from morning until night. Especially during this month of Ramadan, it's truly extraordinary." Thank you everyone," he said when met at the Metro Jaya Police Headquarters, South Jakarta, Thursday (19/2/2026).
