Just before his departure from the airport in Jakarta to the island of Ternate, the man tested positive. His wife, who had a negative test, was allowed to join the flight. What a downer, the couple must have thought. They devised a cunning trick.
Got caught
The man put on his wife’s niqab, which covered him completely. He also used her passport and PCR test. Miraculously, he managed to board the plane. But the man was caught during the flight by a flight attendant.
Once the man was comfortably seated in his airplane seat, he went to the bathroom to change into his own clothes. Nikab off, T-shirt on. But the flight attendant also saw through the switch trick and immediately informed the local authorities on Ternate.
After landing, the man had to do another test immediately. And yes, he was positive. The man was quickly evacuated.
Before the judge
The costume party costs the man dearly: he is charged with identity fraud and endangering public health.
The airline Citilink is late CNN Indonesia know that, as a result of this incident, they will check more strictly.
