Indonesian traveler paid IDR6.5 million to skip quarantine after return from India: police
The Jakarta Metro Police has arrested a traveler and two airport officials over an alleged bribe that allowed the former to skip hotel quarantine, which is mandatory for all incoming travelers from abroad.
Travel restrictions are stricter for travelers from India, however, as Indonesia seeks to prevent transmission of dangerous new mutations of the coronavirus by suspending all arrivals from the South Asian country over its devastating second COVID-19 wave.
