An Indonesian immigration office has expelled six Australian and Dutch citizens back to their countries after they were allegedly conducting researches without having official permits, a senior official said on Wednesday.
The six foreigners had been detained for conducting researches in the archaeology sector in East Nusa Tenggara province's district of Rote Ndao before securing licenses from the Indonesian Ministry of Research and Technology and Higher Education, said Sjachril, Head of the Immigration Office in the province's capital of Kupang.
"Consequently, the immigration office uses its authority to conduct deportation," he said.
