Indonesian comedian Isa Bajaj says he’s bent on identifying an alleged exhibitionist after his wife became a victim of sexual harassment. 

The comedian, whose real name is Isa Wahyu Prastantyo, took to Instagram yesterday and said that his wife, Rahayu Mutiara, was flashed by an unidentified man while she was walking down a Jakarta street yesterday morning. Isa said the alleged exhibitionist was following Rahayu on his motorcycle before he approached her and flashed his genitalia. Rahayu froze in shock as it happened. 

“There was a motorcyclist who took out his penis [out of his pants] and played with it. My wife became a victim [of sexual harassment] when she was going on her morning walk,” the 39-year-old wrote.

Isa posted two photos of the alleged perpetrator, which were taken from a CCTV recording, to his Instagram feed. The photo showed the man wearing a dark blue T-shirt, blue cap, a red face mask, and a pair of short orange pants.

“Friends, this is the exhibitionist suspect who [sexually harassed] my wife this morning. At the moment, the plate number doesn’t match the vehicle pictured here. I need your help to elevate this case,” Isa wrote in the caption.

“Apparently a similar incident also occurred to the housemaid who works at the home of [late Indonesian comedian] Olga Syahputra’s younger sibling, who’s our neighbor. I hope the suspect will be found soon and apprehended so there will be no more incidents and victims,” Isa continued, before mentioning Jakarta Metro Police’s Instagram account, among others.

Isa provided an update this morning and said he had filed a police report, and that he received reports of similar incidents occurring in his neighborhood of Duren Sawit, East Jakarta. He added that officers from the Duren Sawit sub-precinct had gone to check the crime scene and available CCTV recording of the incident earlier today.
