Actress Lydiawati has uploaded two videos on Facebook, showing her beating up an alleged stalker whom she claims has been stalking her for over two years, after the stalker allegedly started to bother her family too.
"I have patiently kept quiet for two years by not replying to her messages and calls. But of late she has tested my patience by disturbing my family. That I cannot allow.
"I had to do what I did for the safety of myself and my children as well as my family. I have suffered emotional stress and trauma as I felt unsafe, especially when I had to leave my kids at home when I went out for work or shooting," said the actress in her Facebook posting.
The facebook post contained two videos showing Lydiawati confronting and beating up the alleged stalker, even kicking her several times when she was down on the ground and even throwing a chair at her prone supposed stalker.

Lydiawati added that she beat up the stalker to teach the person a lesson so that her stalker will not repeat what she did and bother her or her family again.
She added that she also hoped that this will stop her stalker from doing the same things to other artists, reiterating that she had to do what she did to head off further dangers to her person and her family.
"It is up to you to say or accuse me of anything, I accept any criticism with an open heart and will accept it," said the actress.
At the beginning of her post, Lydiawati also asked for forgiveness to all for the drama that had occurred, adding that she is not proud of what she had done and neither is she asking for sympathy or support.
The actress said that the stalker had apparently promised her wealth and sweet promises which she had spurned.
