BADUNG - Bali immigration officers deported a French foreigner, Rayan Jawad Henri Bitar (31). This French Caucasian was previously imprisoned for methamphetamine and possession of firearms.
Head of the Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kemenkum HAM) Bali, Jamaruli Manihuruk explained that the French foreigner was deported for violating Article 48 paragraph (1) of Law Number 6 of 2011 concerning Immigration in conjunction with Article 127 paragraph (1) of the Narcotics Law in conjunction with Article 1 paragraph (1) Emergency Law Number 12 of 1951.
"After the person concerned is released from the correctional facility for the criminal violation the residence permit in question is no longer valid," said Jamaruli, Wednesday, March 30.
In the provisions of Article 48 paragraph (1) of the Immigration Law, it is stated that every foreigner residing in the territory of Indonesia is required to have a residence permit.
