00:00The public complaint we received said that in this area there were foreigners, or parties,

00:15who worked without having a permanent residence permit.

00:20And as a result of our operation tonight, as many as 252 foreigners have been arrested.

00:27One of the most well-known mistakes is Section 6.1.C,

00:31which is under Section 19.9.63,

00:34because they do not have a permanent residence permit in our country.

00:40And then, Section 15.1.C,

00:43which is under the same section, because it is still under overstay.

00:47And at the same time, we have arrested one Malaysian citizen

00:55and we investigated under Section 56.1.D,

01:00because it protects the parties.

01:02All these arrests will be placed in the Tropical Investigation Department

01:08for further investigation and investigation.

01:10This location, if we look at the back there,

01:13the workers here are the parties who work for the project back there.

01:18And if we look at the project back there,

01:21we can say that it is still in the middle,

01:27maybe less than a year.

01:32So this project is a legal project?

01:35I know it's not your jurisdiction, but it's a legal project.

01:37Yes, it's a legal project.

01:39How did we actually clean up?

01:43We did the same as the first one in the past two weeks.

01:48It's less than what the public thinks about the existence of the parties in this area.

01:53And in this second operation,

01:56if I said earlier that it was the most numerous,

02:00this one is even more numerous.

02:02This one is more active.

02:03This time, there were 725 people.

02:06If I'm not mistaken, it's the same as before,

02:09under Section 61.C,

02:12which is not in the area at all,

02:14it's empty.

02:15And also Section 15.1.C,

02:18which is overstayed.

02:21And just like before,

02:23we also have a case under Section 56.1.D.

02:28A Malaysian citizen,

02:30we detained because he was protecting,

02:35he was a caretaker here.

02:38From this number,

02:39we have detained the most number of Bangladeshi citizens.

02:43The second is Indonesia,

02:44the third is Myanmar,

02:46and the last one is Pakistan.

02:49So, just like before,

02:52the first one,

02:53those who are detained,

02:54we will bring them to the police station,

02:57to the police station,

02:59to proceed with the documentation,

03:02and proceed further.
