Vancouver - A man from Vancouver is facing deportation from Bali, Indonesia, for dancing naked on a sacred volcano in violation of the country’s laws.

A translated press release from the Indonesian Ministry of Law and Human Rights stated that 33-year-old Jeffrey Douglas Krigen has been accused of filming an “immoral video on Mount Batur” and severely violating Balinese culture.

“The Regional Director of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights in Bali, Mr. Jamaroli Manihorok, said that if the mentioned foreigner is proven guilty of the violation, administrative action regarding immigration will be taken against him in the form of deportation.

“The immigration officer has the authority to take administrative action against foreign citizens in Indonesian territory who engage in dangerous activities and are considered a threat to safety and public order, or violate regulations and laws.”

Global Affairs said in a statement on Friday that it is aware of an incident involving a Canadian in Indonesia.

It said consular officials have been in contact with local authorities regarding the case, but privacy considerations mean no further information will be disclosed.
