Dangdut singer Ridho Rhoma, whose claim to fame has more to do with sharing his name with his dangdut legend father Rhoma Irama than his actual music, was involved in a car accident on Jalan Prof Dr Satrio, Kuningan, South Jakarta early Sunday morning.

Ridho crashed his car into a parked car on the side of the road. An unnamed witness suspects that Ridho was driving under the influence of alcohol when the incident took place.

“The person whose car was crashed into was eating inside his parked car. All of a sudden the crash happened. It was loud like a bomb, so quick. When [Ridho and the other driver] had a chat, the one who was crashed into was calm, but Ridho was upset,” the witness told Okezone yesterday.

“It was caused by a bottle [of alcohol],” the witness said.

Ridho himself denied any rumors that he was driving under the influence of alcohol via Twitter.

I want to straighten out news that is spreading in the media. It’s true I was involved in an accident in Kuningan

 

Inaccurate reporting about my being drunk, or otherwise, is not true. Thankfully no one was hurt or died [from the accident]
