JAKARTA: Actor Revaldo Fifaldi, has once again been arrested for drug possession and abuse, with authorities detaining him yesterday following a raid at an apartment in South Jakarta.
Jakarta police have arrested actor Revaldo Fifaldi a fourth time for drug possession and abuse, according to authorities. Revaldo, 44, was detained following a raid at his South Jakarta apartment on Wednesday. He admitted to using illegal substances to maintain his fitness and combat stress, police reported.
Investigators found crystal methamphetamine and Xanax, which they believe was used to manage stress, during the investigation. Revaldo appeared to be under the influence of drugs when police arrived at the scene, but he still managed to communicate with them. He stated he obtained the drugs and the amount he received, according to authorities.
This is not Revaldo's first encounter with law enforcement over drug-related offenses. In 2006, he was arrested after being found in possession of crystal methamphetamine and served two years in prison. In 2010, he was arrested again after authorities found 62g of crystal methamphetamine. In 2023, he was detained for a third time in a drug-related case. The latest arrest adds to his growing legal troubles, as he has previously addressed his struggles with substance abuse.
Police are still investigating the latest case, including the source of the seized drugs.
