DENPASAR - Denpasar Immigration Office, Bali, deported two foreign nationals (WNA) from China for allegedly establishing a fictitious company using an investor's Limited Stay Permit (Itas).

"Every deportation that we do must cost themselves, and we prevent them from entering Indonesia again, especially Bali," said Denpasar Immigration Office Head Tedy Riyandi as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, August 11.

The two Chinese foreigners had the initials LB, a 39-year-old man and LL, a 27-year-old woman.

They were deported through I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport, Bali, on Friday riding the Chinese airline Southern Airlines with flight number CZ-626 with the direct destination of Denpasar-Guangzhou.

Both of them used Itas investors to enter Bali, but it turned out that there was no investment because the company was fake.
