Three suspected members of an international crime syndicate have been arrested in Greater Jakarta over a series of ATM-card skimming attacks, totaling Rp 3.9 billion (US$335,446).
A police investigation found that two Sri Lankan natives, identified as Vinoth and Siva, and Siva's Indonesian wife, Riska Deliawati, had installed hidden cameras and skimmers ' electronic devices that read data from customers' cards in ' Bank Mandiri ATMs in Jakarta and Bogor.
Your comments:
Many reports are branding these criminals just 'Sri Lankans'.
This, and their behavior, is tarnishing the image of Sri Lanka and insulting the majority Sinhalese community. The media has the responsibility to safe guard the innocent Sri Lankans. Terms like 'Sri Lankan Tamils' or 'Sri Lankan Sinhalese' should be used rather than generalization.
