KALBAR - West Kalimantan Police (Kalbar) arrested middlemen who illegally placed Indonesian Immigrant Workers (PMI) in Malaysia. In this case, 21 people became victims.
Director of the General Criminal Investigation of the West Kalimantan Police, Kombes (Pol) Aman Guntoro, said that one broker has now become a suspect and another person is still being sought.
"The modus operandi of the suspects in committing criminal acts of individuals who carry out the placement of these workers is by promising the workers (victims) with a fairly large salary in the neighboring country (Malaysia)," he said in Pontianak, quoted by Antara, Friday 3 June.
In this crime, the Ditreskrimum of the West Kalimantan Police also secured a red Daihatsu Ayla car, a white Chevrolet type car and other evidence.
The suspect is threatened with Article 81 of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 18 of 2017 concerning Individuals carrying out the placement of Indonesian migrant workers as referred to in Article 69 shall be punished with imprisonment for a maximum of 10 years and a fine of a maximum of Rp. 15 billion.
Aman added that for now the victims are in the shelter of the Indonesian Migrant Workers Protection Agency (BP2MI) in the West Kalimantan region until they are waiting to be returned to their respective areas of origin.
