DENPASAR - Singaraja Immigration Office, Bali, deported a foreign national (WNA) from Belgium for passing a residence permit for almost a year.
"We do not cover the cost of the plane ticket," said Head of the Singaraja Immigration Office Hendra Setiawan in Denpasar as reported by ANTARA, Monday, July 3.
He explained that the Belgian foreigner was a man with the initials DD who was arrested in Karangasem Regency on Tuesday (27/6), when officers carried out immigration patrols.
The 38-year-old man was then detained in the Detention Room of the Singaraja Immigration Office, Buleleng Regency, North Bali.
The Singaraja Immigration Office operating area includes three districts, namely Buleleng, Jembrana and Karangasem regencies.
Based on the results of the examination, DD admitted that he came to Bali alone for a vacation.
However, seeing the potential for work on the Island of the Gods, DD then intended to find a job, but until he was arrested by immigration officers, he never got a job.
DD is known to have a residence permit for visits that is valid until August 9, 2022.
So, when he was arrested on June 27, 2023, he had exceeded the residence permit for 322 days or almost one year to become a foreigner without official or illegal immigration documents in Bali.
DD is subject to Article 78 paragraph 3 of Law Number 6 of 2011 concerning Immigration.
In addition to being deported, DD is also included in the list of deterrence from entering Indonesia.
VOIR éGALEMENT:
In accordance with Article 102 paragraph 1 of Law Number 6 of 2011 concerning Immigration, deterrence can be carried out a maximum of six months and each time can be extended for a maximum of six months.
DD was then deported on Sunday (2/7) night via I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport on a commercial plane with the Denpasar-Amsterdam direct flight route and continued to Brussels, Belgium.
Meanwhile, the Head of the Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights of Bali Province, Anggiat Napitupulu, hopes that the public can participate in supervising foreigners.
The public, he said, could contact the complaint number at 0361-224856.
