This is why we don't want boat arrivals but the lovies think that anyone brown on a boat MUST be a refugee.
All refugees must be selected from the source or neighboring countries.
Indonesian police bust fake Rohingya people-smuggling network with AFP help
Indonesian police say they have worked with the Australian Federal Police to unravel a people-smuggling network that was aimed at bringing in fake Rohingya refugees to Australia.
The revelation comes as real Rohingya refugees took to the water to escape persecution in Myanmar and crowded camps over the border in Bangladesh.
Police in Indonesia have named three suspects, including a Rohingya man, as the organisers of a complex scheme to illegally bring people to Australia.
The director of general crime with Indonesia's national police said people smugglers organised fake papers for six Bangladeshi men who were initially brought by speedboat from Malaysia.
After a long journey through Kalimantan and Java they were eventually smuggled to the Papuan port of Merauke because it was closest to Australia.
The organisers then planned to hire a local fishing boat to bring the men to the Australian mainland.
Communities in Indonesia helped the men in their journey because they claimed to be fellow Muslim Rohingya fleeing persecution in Myanmar.
Police said sympathetic members of one Indonesian community even raised money to buy plane tickets for the men to fly to Merauke.
