DENPASAR - A foreign citizen named Koffe Cristian Yao alias Harry who is suspected to be from Nigeria is not listed in the Bali immigration system. Harry is currently being sought by the police, for allegedly molesting and stealing money from his ex-girlfriend, a local woman with the initials BMS.

"After searching for the name, the name was not listed in the immigration data system," said Head of the Bali Ministry of Law and Human Rights Regional Office Jamaruli Manihuruk in Denpasar, Bali, Monday, August 30.

According to Jamaruli, the Bali immigration authorities are also searching for Harry because of reports of residents allegedly being abused by Harry.

"The immigration authorities are still trying to find the person concerned, of course in coordination with the police. Earlier, the immigration authorities had contacted the reporter who was or was listed on the social media. But there has been no response," said Jamaruli.

Previously reported, Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of North Kuta Police, Iptu Made Purwanta, explained that the assault and robbery occurred on Friday, August 27 afternoon. The victim was contacted by a Nigerian foreigner with the initials K to come to Kerobokan Kelod, North Kuta.

"(The perpetrator) said there was something he wanted to talk to the victim about and then the victim went to the place," said Iptu Purwanta, Sunday, August 29.

After arriving at the location, the perpetrator took the victim's bag containing an important card and Rp2 million in cash.

"Then he asked the victim for money and if the victim did not give it he threatened the victim to kill the victim in Ubud (Gianyar)," added Iptu Purwanta.

After that the victim was invited to go to Ubud. The foreigner asked the victim to take money through an ATM.

After taking the money, the car used by the perpetrator broke down. Here, the victim fled and was rescued by residents.

"Furthermore, the victim reported the incident to the North Kuta Police for follow-up and prosecuted the perpetrators in accordance with applicable legal provisions," said Iptu Purwanta.
