Indonesia arrests over 100 Taiwanese for alleged cyber fraud

Indonesian police have apprehended over 100 Taiwanese individuals at a villa in Bali for suspected cyber fraud. These arrests highlight the growing concern surrounding cyber fraud groups in Southeast Asia, with authorities in China, Indonesia, and Malaysia intensifying their efforts to combat them. The group was found with numerous electronic devices and is accused of conducting online scams targeting Malaysians. While authorities cannot bring charges against them due to jurisdictional issues, they plan to work closely with relevant agencies, including those in Malaysia. The individuals will be deported after further questioning. Indonesia previously confronted international cyber fraud networks with the help of Chinese authorities.
