Bali’s Nyepi Day Sees Swiss Tourist Get One-Year Jail Term for Instagram Insults
A 26-year-old Swiss tourist, Luzian Andrin Zgraggen, was sentenced to one year in Denpasar, Bali, for posting Instagram videos during Nyepi that mocked the Day of Silence. Indonesia’s new criminal code carries up to five years for the offense, but the court reduced the sentence due to his age and conduct, with Swiss consular authorities providing support.
