The police arrested a British foreigner with the initials AAM (29) who went viral for pushing the police because he did not accept being reprimanded and questioned while violating traffic rules at Sunset Road, Kuta, Badung, Bali.

"Currently, the actions taken, securing the perpetrators and evidence, giving fines to the perpetrators, examining witnesses and perpetrators, and coordinating with the immigration authorities to carry out legal proceedings and deportation of the perpetrators," said Head of Public Relations of the Bali Police, Kombes Jansen Avitus Panjaitan, Wednesday, September 20.

The arrests came after the police received a report from a member of the Polantas who was pushed by British foreigners. This foreigner was arrested in Canggu, North Kuta, on Tuesday, September 19 evening.

According to Jansen, this foreigner not only encouraged but slapped Polantas members when they were checked for driving documents.

The foreigner fought a member of the Denpasar Police Traffic Unit named Aiptu Puji Santoso, who was tasked with controlling traffic, together with Aiptu Nyoman Siki Asmara at the Sunset Road Police Post, Kuta.

This foreigner was approached because the woman who was riding was not wearing a helmet. Intending to run away, this foreigner got angry and encouraged the police who wanted to check the driving documents.

"And then it was blocked again because he wanted to run away and the reported emotional (bule) got off the motorbike and immediately slapped the victim to the face until the victim (police) was released and fell," he said.

Because this British foreigner is still angry, Denpasar Police Traffic Unit member Aiptu Puji Santoso acts humanely.

This foreigner was calmed down and reprimanded about traffic violations. The police also asked this foreigner to take a helmet for the woman he was riding.

"Furthermore, at that time, they did police discretion by allowing the reported (bule) to leave, to avoid traffic jams and crowds because people were getting more and more busy coming to the crime scene," he said.
