A viral video shows a couple allegedly engaging in indecent acts inside an online taxi during a trip from Central Jakarta to South Jakarta. Police have identified them and plan to question the pair. The taxi driver has already been interviewed about the incident.
The incident drew public attention after a video uploaded by the online taxi driver, initials AR, spread widely on social media. The footage captures a moment in the vehicle's cabin where two passengers appear to engage in improper conduct. The trip started from Central Jakarta to South Jakarta, and the driver grew suspicious when the female passenger repeatedly lay with her head on her partner's lap.
AR recounted that he initially lowered the center mirror to observe before issuing the first warning, which was ignored. "I started lowering the center mirror, I lowered the center mirror. Then I started to warn them," AR told reporters on February 14, 2026. After a second, firmer warning, the female passenger sat up, and AR noticed their clothes were disheveled. "I saw the girl's clothes were messy. The man's pants were also not right," he added.
Kapolsek Kebayoran Lama, Kompol Muhammad Kukuh Islami, stated that the investigation is ongoing. "In the future, we will conduct an examination," Kukuh said on February 15, 2026. Police have questioned the driver and now know the identities of the taxi passengers. "We have obtained the identity of the online taxi passenger. We are still investigating," he explained. The video has sparked reactions from netizens who regret such behavior in a public app-based vehicle.
