Police
in Bogor have arrested a travel agent for allegedly conning a group of
15 postgraduate students out of Rp 105 million ($11,760) for a trip to
China that never materialized.
Adj. Comr. Iman Imanuddin, the
Bogor Police’s chief of detectives, said on Thursday that the suspect,
Chintia Citra, 35, had charged the students from the Bogor Institute of
Agriculture (IPB) Rp 7 million each for the trip that was supposed to
take place last November but failed to materialize.
Iman said
Chintia had claimed to the students that she represented a travel agency
in Bogor, but she had been fired from the agency two months earlier.
The
students, who were supposed to have taken part in an exchange program
with a Chinese university, missed out on the program and reported
Chintia to the police in January.
Iman said it was possible that Chintia worked with several accomplices to pull off the scam.
