After contacting the alleged victim, Kimia Farma Diagnostika president director Adil Fadillah Bulqini said the company had agreed to bring the case to court.

“PT Kimia Farma Diagnostika will bring seek legal action against the [employee] who had purportedly faked rapid test results, committed extortion and intimidation,” Adil said on Saturday as quoted by kompas.com.

He went on to say that the company had already questioned the alleged perpetrator and conducted an internal investigation. However, Adil stopped short of disclosing the exact date the employee would be reported to the police.

Meanwhile, Soekarno-Hatta general manager Agus Haryadi said airport operator PT Angkasa Pura would coordinate with the authorities to resolve the case.

The allegations surfaced on social media when Twitter user @listongs posted a thread recounting her experience being purportedly extorted and sexually harassed by a medical worker employed by Kimia Farma during a rapid test at Soekarno-Hatta Terminal 3, prior to her departure to Nias, North Sumatra, at 6 a.m. on Sept. 13.
