Brilio.net - Chikita Meidy is widely known as a successful child singer in the 90s through the hit song "Kampuang Jauah di Mato." However, after growing up, Chikita decided to leave the entertainment world and focus on building a skincare and cosmetics business called Vierology. This business grew rapidly and attracted public attention.
Unfortunately, behind the success of her business, Chikita's relationship with her best friend, Silda Oktavia Rossa, experienced a rift. The two had worked together in the skincare business. However, their friendship began to falter when the business suffered losses.
Chikita's accusation that Silda was the cause of the business's bankruptcy was the beginning of the conflict. Silda, who felt slandered, then reported Chikita to the Polda Metro Jaya on suspicion of defamation. The relationship that was originally close has now turned into a legal dispute involving both parties.
Mutual accusations and police reports have made the public curious about the end of this feud. Here is the complete chronology summarized by brilio.net from various sources, Sunday (29/9).

On September 12, 2024, Silda, accompanied by her lawyer Erik Hutajulung, reported Chikita to Polda Metro Jaya on suspicion of defamation. Silda admitted that she felt slandered, especially because Chikita mentioned her name directly in a TikTok live.
"So, on September 6, the Chikita live account was suspected of defaming me," said Silda in her statement to the media.

Silda explained that her initial introduction to Chikita in 2018 was from a skincare business. According to her, Chikita had asked for her help to promote skincare products, without any official agreement or written contract.
However, a few years later, Chikita began to accuse Silda of causing her business losses. She decided to take legal action because she was disappointed with Chikita.
"Before 2018, we were friends. On the basis of friends, they only asked me to help promote facial cream, there was no agreement or stamped agreement. So after I left and did not want to continue doing business with him, there was a sense of disappointment and he accused me of being the mastermind behind the losses from his cream," he explained.
4. Chikita felt disappointed that there was no mediation, and responded with a warning.

"It is very unfortunate that something like this was not discussed first," said Chikita in his statement in South Jakarta on September 27, 2024.
Chikita admitted that she had sent a summons to Silda to ask for clarification, but received no response. Chikita's legal team, Adam Barkah Setiadi, stated that his client would send a second summons.

Chikita and her legal team emphasized that if Silda did not respond to the second summons, they would take further action by reporting back. The 33-year-old woman felt that she was the victim in this case.
"If we have sent the second warning letter but there is no response, then we will be forced to take legal action to file a counter-report," said Adam.
In her interview, Chikita also stated that what she conveyed on TikTok was a fact based on evidence. Even so, she hopes that this problem can be resolved without having to continue to heat up in the legal realm.
"What I conveyed in the live streaming is a fact, based on related evidence that I have submitted to my legal team," Chikita emphasized.
