Inara Rusli & Business Partner Admit to Secret Marriage Since August, Ex-Husband Virgoun Dragged Into Controversy

KUALA LUMPUR, El Sky News – The controversy surrounding Indonesian singer Virgoun’s ex-wife, Inara Rusli, has intensified following a shocking revelation. Her business partner, Insanul Fahmi, has publicly confirmed that he and Inara entered into a nikah siri (an unregistered religious marriage) in August 2025 — despite Fahmi still being legally married to his wife, Wardatina Mawa.

The bold confession was made by Fahmi during a widely circulated exclusive interview uploaded to YouTube recently.

Confession Sparks New Wave of Public Outrage

Fahmi’s admission comes after he and Inara were reported to the police by Wardatina Mawa over alleged adultery. The situation escalated when Mawa claimed to possess CCTV footage allegedly showing inappropriate interaction between the pair.

Key details revealed by Fahmi include:

• Marriage Date: He stated the nikah siri took place on 8 August 2025.
• Reason for Confession: He claims the disclosure was necessary to counter accusations of immorality, insisting that anything captured in the CCTV footage occurred after they were married under religious law.

“We weren’t afraid because what we did wasn’t sinful — we are husband and wife. The CCTV footage is from August 8, after the marriage,” Fahmi asserted.

Ex-Husband Virgoun Pulled Into the Drama

The situation grew even more complicated after reports claimed that the CCTV recording was taken at a residence previously shared by Inara and her former husband, Virgoun.

Additional reports alleged that:

• Virgoun was aware of the footage before it became public,
• He had contacted Inara expressing distress over the matter, and
• He allegedly removed their children temporarily to shield them from the ongoing turmoil.

Claims of Being a Widower, Inara’s Reaction, and Legal Standing

During the same interview, Fahmi admitted that he had initially told Inara he was a widower — claiming that a prior verbal talak (divorce pronouncement) toward Mawa had made him believe he was no longer married in the eyes of religion.

However, Mawa refuted this, stressing that:

• No official divorce had taken place,
• She remains Fahmi’s legal wife under civil law.

According to reports, when Inara later learned that Fahmi was still legally married, she allegedly attempted to walk away from the relationship. Fahmi, however, admitted that he persuaded her to continue.

Police Report Still Active, Public Debate Intensifies

The police report lodged by Wardatina Mawa remains under investigation, while the confession of the nikah siri continues to spark heated debate across social media and public forums — touching on:

• moral boundaries,
• religious interpretation, and
• legal implications in Indonesia.
