Indonesian Authorities Continue 'Obscenity' Prosecution of Popular OnlyFans Creator

JAKARTA, Indonesia — Indonesian authorities have confirmed they will continue the criminal prosecution of popular OnlyFans creator Dea Gresaids, days after the influencer told the court that she is pregnant.

Gresaids was charged for creating consensual sexual content and selling it through her OnlyFans account.

Charges were prompted by her appearance on the popular Deddy Corbuzier podcast, which according to local English-language news site Coconuts Jakarta “was seen as a gutsy move” since even though there are other Indonesian content creators on OnlyFans, “most have chosen to remain anonymous due to the country’s draconian anti-pornography laws.”

Gresaids is being charged with “spreading pornographic content online” and was detained in late March in Malang, East Java. She was freed at the time, but she is still required to regularly report to the police.

Last month, her attorney Abdillah Syarifudin asked for leniency from the authorities due to her six-month pregnancy, Coconuts Jakarta reported.

Gresaids’ fate is in the hands of the district attorney’s office, and her lawyer has “asked that her pregnancy be taken into account when deciding whether or not she should be placed in detention during her trial,” Coconuts Jakarta reported.

“From a humanitarian perspective, no detentions have been carried out, but the legal process is still ongoing,” Jakarta Metro Police spokesman Endra Zulpan told reporters.

The authorities zeroed in on Gresaids after “her popularity had skyrocketed after appearing in a popular podcast discussing her online sex work,” the news report explained.

On the podcast, Gresaids told Corbuzier that she had started her OnlyFans account to satisfy her passion for cosplay, and only later produced sexually oriented videos.

In early April, police also questioned someone known as DRZ, the male who performed with Gresaids in her OnlyFans videos. He alleged that Gresaids had promised him “the sex tapes were only intended for personal use” and that he “had no knowledge that they were uploaded to OnlyFans.”

As XBIZ reported, Indonesian police have recently been cracking down on tourists making adult content in recognizable locations in the country — which includes prime destination Bali — including charging them for making content in the privacy of their rooms.
