JAKARTA - The Head of the Regional Office for the Regional Law and Human Rights of DKI Jakarta, Ibnu Chuldun, explained the incident of alleged mistreatment of diplomats from Nigeria by immigration officers. According to Ibnu, there was a misunderstanding between each party.
"Both parties admitted that they had misunderstood and agreed to resolve this issue." Ibnu said to VOI, Thursday, August 12.
To ensure this issue is resolved, a meeting will be held between the Nigerian ambassador to Indonesia and the immigration authorities.
With this incident, Immigration will improve operational standards (SOP) in supervising foreign nationals (WNA).
"Immigration has also increased the SOP for the activities of prosecuting and supervising foreigners," he said.
As is known, the misunderstanding occurred when Immigration officers monitored Nigerian diplomats in front of an apartment in the Kuningan area, South Jakarta, some time ago.
"At the time of the incident, immigration officers carried out routine surveillance and checks on the validity of foreign citizens' residence permits," explained Ibnu.
At the time of checking, Ibnu said, the person concerned refused to show his identity or passport to the immigration control team who had full authority in this matter.
"The person concerned behaved uncooperatively by rebuking the officers and challenging him to be brought to the immigration office for inspection," he said again.
Furthermore, Ibnu said, in accordance with the rules for Indonesian immigration, foreigners are required to show and submit their passport or residence permit to the immigration official on duty by bringing identification and a letter of assignment according to the SOP for immigration control.
"The person concerned refused to show his identity. So the immigration officer did not know his diplomatic status. So the immigration officer brought him to the immigration office for questioning," he said.
But on the way to the immigration office, the Nigerian acted aggressively, like screaming and struggling. He even tried to break the car window by using an electric cigarette that the officers had seized.
As a result of his actions, one of the immigration officers suffered a swollen and bleeding wound on his left lip. Arriving at the South Jakarta immigration office, the Nigerian named Ibrahim immediately issued his identity. It was discovered that he was one of the official diplomats at the Nigerian Embassy in Jakarta.
"This diplomacy is only known by immigration officers after being at the immigration office and after being verified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs." the lid.
