TANGERANG - The Soekarno-Hatta Special Class I Immigration Office has arrested three foreign nationals (WNA) from Pakistan on suspicion of using fake Indonesian visas. The 3 people had the initials AMK (45), OB (44) and SZ (30).
Head of the Soekarno Hatta Immigration Office, Muhammad Tito Adrianto, said the perpetrators traveled from Kuala Lumpur to Malaysia, Jakarta using Malindo Air OD-348 aircraft and Batik Air ID-7283 Monday, August 15, at 03.00 a.m. Western Indonesian Time (WIB).
When they arrive in Indonesia, they are subjected to an immigration check at the Immigration checkpoint. The result found that the C314 (Investor) visa used by OB and SZ was not registered with the Directorate General of Immigration.
"OB and SZ are not recorded in the visa issuance system of the Directorate General of Immigration. While the C314 visa owned by AMK is recorded in the visa issuance system, it turns out that it belongs to a foreigner on behalf of ANU," Tito told reporters at Immigration at Sorkarno Hatta Airport, Thursday, August 18.
Based on the perpetrator's confession, Tito explained, the purpose of the three people was to visit three palm oil companies in Jakarta, Indonesia.
