Jakarta

The panel of judges granted singer Vidi Aldiano‘s exception in a lawsuit regarding alleged copyright infringement of the song entitled ‘Nuansa Bening’. The judge stated that the lawsuit filed by Keenan Nasution and Rudi Pekerti as the creators of the song ‘Nuansa Bening’ was unacceptable.

“So the granting of the exception resulted in or made the plaintiff’s claim unacceptable. So in this case the Panel of Judges did not enter into the substance of the case,” said Central Jakarta District Court (PN Jakpus) spokesperson Muhammad Firman Akbar to reporters, Friday (21/11/2025).

Firman said the lawsuit could not be accepted due to formal defects or lack of parties. The judge believes that the 31 concert organizers and three digital music platforms mentioned in the lawsuit should also be named as co-defendants.

“But this digital platform is not a party to the lawsuit. So it makes the plaintiff’s lawsuit formally flawed,” said Firman.

“In this lawsuit the plaintiff sued 31 live concert allegedly performed by the defendant. But these 31 concerts, the show organizers or event organizerIt’s not a party. “According to the Panel of Judges, the 31 concerts, the concert organizers, should be sued,” he added.
