C
ontroversial British adult film star Bonnie Blue will be deported from Bali, an immigration official said Friday, after earlier receiving a small fine for traffic violations.
Local police last week raided a studio in Badung regency, which is located near the provincial capital of Denpasar, detaining Blue, 26, whose real name is Tia Billinger.
Three men, two Britons and an Australian, were also taken on suspicion of producing pornographic content after the raid. Police said, however, they found no evidence of adult material.
Husnan Handano, immigration spokesman at Ngurah Rai International Airport in Denpasar, told AFP that Blue will be deported early Saturday morning.
"Her flight will be at 12:30 a.m.," Husnan said on Friday, adding more details would be provided later.
Earlier on Friday, Billinger and an associate, 27-year-old Liam Andrew Jackson, were fined Rp 200,000 ($12) for breaking traffic regulations.
"The defendants have lawfully committed the offense jointly and continuously," Denpasar District Court judge I Ketut Somanasa said.
During the Dec. 4 raid, police seized a dark blue pickup truck labeled "Bang Bus."
British tabloid Daily Mail reported on Wednesday that the vehicle appeared to have been untaxed since 2023 and had allegedly been illegally repainted from white to blue without re-registration.
Billinger's lawyer, Edward Pangkahila, told AFP his clients would comply fully with the authorities.
"I suggested to them to apologize to the people of Bali if this has caused any public unease," Edward added.
Although Bali is predominantly Hindu and a magnet for millions of foreign visitors, Muslim-majority Indonesia strictly forbids the production of pornographic material, which carries penalties of up to 12 years in prison and a fine of $360,000.
Billinger gained fame for her provocative stunts as an adult content creator.
Her case comes amid renewed complaints by Balinese officials over unruly foreign tourists, following a string of deportations in recent years, including several Russian influencers expelled for posing nude at sacred sites.
