Video: Foreigner Caught Assaulting Local Man on a Canggu Road at Night, Motive Still Unknown

BALI, INDONESIA – disturbing video circulating online shows a foreign man allegedly assaulting a local resident on the side of a road in Canggu, Bali. The incident appears to have taken place at night and involves the foreigner arriving on a motorcycle before physically attacking the victim.

At this stage, key details remain unclear. The exact time, trigger, and motive behind the assault have not been confirmed, and authorities have not yet released an official statement. What stands out in the footage is the absence of bystanders stepping in to stop the violence, despite the incident happening in a public area.

The video has sparked strong reactions online. One netizen commented,

“Don’t let people be trampled in their own country by foreigners,” reflecting growing frustration among viewers who are calling for firm action and accountability.

While this case is still under investigation, it serves as a reminder that acts of violence, regardless of who commits them, are criminal offenses under Indonesian law.

A message to tourists and expatriates in Bali

Bali welcomes visitors from around the world, but respect for local communities, laws, and basic human decency is non-negotiable. Avoid confrontations, manage emotions responsibly, and resolve disputes through legal and peaceful channels. Criminal behavior not only harms victims but also damages the safety and reputation of the island.

Anyone with information related to this incident is encouraged to report it to local authorities to help ensure proper investigation and justice.
