The biggest headache to the Australian Government ! Indonesia proves with Evidence !

The Indonesian police have shown the money as the proof of evidence, they claim that Australia paid people smugglers to turn a boat with 65 people, including around 54 Sri Lankans, away from Australia and towards Indonesia.

Photographs of thousands of US dollars handed over to six people smugglers, which Indonesian police say is proof of bribery by Australian officials. The revelation sheds light on a possible motivation for the controversial alleged payments by Australia to six people smugglers. The crew members claimed Andika was blocked in international waters by HMAS Wollongong 92 and an Australian customs ship in a standoff lasting several hours. Following negotiations, the crew reportedly agreed to a $US5000 payment each if they returned to Indonesia. The crew initially told Australian officials that they couldn't go back to Indonesia because they could be jailed for people smuggling. The two boats were released at the Indonesian border. It is incredulous that a wealthy country such as Australia would push back boats with desperate asylum seekers to Indonesia, a country many considered Third World. Indonesia was doing its bit to fight people smuggling, with those found guilty facing sentences of 15 years’ jail. “Why can’t Australians deal with [asylum seekers] like they are supposed to do? “They are all also human beings; they have problems with their country. Why can’t Australia either deport them or detain them until they are accepted by other countries the way Indonesia does?”
