Japanese Fugitive Accused of Fraud Deported from Indonesia

A Japanese fugitive accused of swindling about $7 million from a pandemic

subsidy programme was deported from Indonesia on Wednesday, an
immigration official said.

Mitsuhiro Taniguchi, who was arrested by the National Police in Lampung

earlier this month, boarded a Narita-bound flight from Jakarta, Indonesian
immigration official Douglas Simamora said in a statement.

“This man is being deported because the Japanese government has

revoked his passport and he has no stay permit. From now on, he will be on
our deterrence list,” he said.

Taniguchi is accused by Japanese authorities of helping to steal 960

million yen ($7 million) intended for small businesses impacted by the
COVID-19 pandemic, according to Kyodo news.

The Japanese national allegedly submitted thousands of false applications

for the subsidy programme and fled for Indonesia in October 2020 after he
was put on a police wanted list. Taniguchi’s ex-wife and two sons have
been arrested in connection with the allegations, Japanese media have
reported.

Indonesian authorities said he had told residents in Sumatra that he

wanted to invest in fisheries in the area.
