Makassar Immigration Detention Center (Rudenim) carried out deportation of two Nigerian citizens (WN) after his stay in Indonesia, especially in Jakarta, had expired or overstayed.
Head of Makassar Immigration Detention Center, Alimuddin, said the deportation process for the two Nigerian citizens was carried out after the administrative files were declared complete to be returned to their home countries.
"These two Nigerian citizens have the initials EU and CK. Both of them have lived for more than three years since the COVID-19 pandemic and their visit visa should only be used for 60 days. After that, they were detained in Jakarta and transferred to the Makassar Rudenim," Ali said as quoted by ANTARA, Saturday 9 September.
Alimuddin explained that EU and CK have been in Indonesia, especially in Jakarta since 2020 and their visit visa is valid for 60 days. Both of them have lived in the apartment of Menara Latumenten, West Jakarta since the beginning of COVID-19 in Indonesia.
He said the EU and CK had been in Indonesia for three years but never even extended their visit visas even though the registered visit visa b211a they used had a maximum stay limit of 60 days. After that, it must be extended to the local immigration office.
As a result of this action, the two Nigerian citizens violated Article 78 paragraph 3 of Law Number 6 of 2011 concerning Immigration.
While in Jakarta, they traded women's underwear (bra) to make a living in Jakarta.
CK admitted that he had tried to get a temporary residence permit (Thursday) because he wanted to sell in Indonesia. CK's business made Kitas through an acquaintance who is a foreign citizen as well.
CK has already paid Rp800 thousand, but was deceived by the foreigner. After COVID-19 hit, CK no longer had the capital to extend its visa.
The two immigration violators were also detained in the Immigration Detention Room of the West Jakarta Non-TPI Special Class Immigration Office on July 24, 2023 and on August 14, 2023, they were transferred to the Makassar Immigration Detention Center.
After 3 weeks at the Makassar Rudenim, EU and CK were deported on Thursday (7/9) escorted by five officers from the Makassar Rudenim.
