The Story of Nathan Cohen, A Man Without Country

Previously, the www.hukumindo.com platform has talk about "Trump Has Ban For Foreign Students Visa, Especially Who Wants to Studies at Harvard", "Indonesian citizens Arrested in KSA Regarding Fake Hajj", you may read also "Three Chinese Tourists Arrested for Carrying Hermit Crabs" and on this occasion we will discuss about 'The Story of Nathan Cohen, A Man Without Country'.

Nathan Cohen, nicknamed “the man without a country,” was a wanderer who wandered from country to country and was rejected everywhere. He eventually died alone in Westport, Connecticut, United States (US), in 1916, at the age of 37. Cohen’s story was largely forgotten until 2019, when Lori Gandini, a registrar at the Westport Civil Registry Office, stumbled upon his death certificate while reorganizing old documents. It stated that Cohen was “a man without a country.” Her discovery prompted an investigation by historians from the Westport Museum for History and Culture, who uncovered Cohen’s complicated life story—one of betrayal, deportation, and rejection. The beginning of the journey: From Russia to America. Cohen was born in 1878 in the small town of Bausk, Russia (now Latvia), which was home to a Jewish community before the Russian Revolution of 1905.[1]

He had lived in Brazil, then moved to the US in May 1912 with 5,000 US $ (around IDR. 81 million) and the hope of starting a new life. At that time, Cohen bought a ship ticket for 45 US $ (now IDR. 731,070) from Rio de Janeiro to New York. Upon arriving in the US, Cohen headed to Virginia to open a small shop with relatives. However, bad luck befell him. His business went bankrupt, his wife was taken away by his own best friend, and he became poor and suffered from mental disorders. Declared insane and deported In 1914, Virginia authorities deemed Cohen “insane” and sent him to a mental hospital in Baltimore. Not wanting to bear the cost of treatment, they handed him over to the Immigration Service in New York. With the pretext that Cohen was “insane” from the start of entering the US, the government decided to deport him to Brazil under the Alien Act of 1798, which allowed the deportation of foreigners who were a burden to the state within the first three years of their arrival.[2]

However, the deportation attempt failed. Brazil rejected Cohen because he was not their citizen. Argentina was also reluctant to accept him. In fact, the US itself would not allow him back in. Within a year, Cohen was “adrift” at sea twice, going back and forth between countries that all closed their doors. Allowed to return to the US On April 18, 1915, hours before the ship took him to Brazil for the fourth time, the acting US Secretary of Labor, John B. Densmore, finally allowed Cohen to re-enter the US. This decision was made thanks to the intervention of retired judge Leon Sanders and the Jewish organization, the Hebrew Sheltering and Guardian Society, which stated that Cohen's mental disorder only emerged after living in the US, not before. They guaranteed Cohen's existence with a $500 bail (around IDR. 8 million) so that he would not become a burden on the state. Cohen was then treated at Ellis Island Hospital, and was transferred to the McFarland Sanatorium in Green's Farms, where he breathed his last on March 3, 1916. His funeral was handled by the Hebrew Free Society in Staten Island, New York. Now, thanks to an accidental discovery and the dedication of historians, Cohen's story is no longer buried.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

US President Donald Trump has announced a visa ban for foreign students who are about to begin their studies at Harvard University. This is the latest aggressive move by Trump to pressure one of the world's best universities and leaves the fate of hundreds of foreign students in limbo. "I have determined that it is necessary to restrict the entry of foreign nationals who seek to enter the United States solely or primarily to pursue a program of study at Harvard University or a program of student exchange operated by Harvard University," Trump said in a statement on Wednesday (4/6) evening local time. In his statement, Trump said the decision is effective immediately and "will apply to any foreign national who enters or attempts to enter the United States to begin their studies at Harvard University" through the Student and Exchange Visitor Program. He also added that international students who are currently studying at Harvard on various types of visas will face further review and risk having their visas revoked.[1]

The move, Trump said, was necessary to protect "national security". "In my judgment, it is a grave national security risk for an academic institution to refuse to provide adequate information when requested, especially regarding alleged misconduct or crimes committed by its foreign students," Trump said. He also accused "Harvard and its affiliated organizations on campus of continuing to deny equal opportunity to hard-working Americans." "It is not in the interests of the United States for Harvard to further its discrimination against any race, national origin, ancestry, or religion that it does not like by limiting the opportunities available to American students because of the large number of foreign students," Trump's statement read. The ban appears to apply only to Harvard University. However, the Trump administration is still targeting blatant restrictions on foreign students from studying in the US. Currently, the US has restricted or even stopped accepting foreign student visas.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

Four Indonesian citizens (WNI) were arrested by Saudi Arabian police in Medina in connection with a hajj fraud. The Consul General of the Republic of Indonesia in Jeddah, Yusron B. Ambary, said that news has spread in Saudi Arabia that the four Indonesian citizens who were arrested were offering fake hajj services. They claimed to provide the slaughter of sacrificial animals for hajj (hadyu) in exchange for money.[1]

Now, the four Indonesian citizens have been prosecuted. The case has also been referred to the Public Prosecutor's Office. The Saudi police warned against spreading false advertisements on social media. Do not offer hajj services such as providing hadyu, selling hajj bracelets, and transportation in the Holy Land. Such actions are often carried out by individuals and illegal businesses.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

Japanese police arrested three Chinese tourists after finding thousands of protected hermit crabs. Their actions were detected because of the noise inside the suitcases they were carrying. The three Chinese tourists were arrested by police in the Amami Islands, near Okinawa on May 7. The suspects were named Liao Zhibin (24), Song Zhenhao (26), and Guo Jiawei (27). They were proven to be carrying 160 kilograms of live hermit crabs. The Amami Islands are off the southwest coast of Kyushu and just north of Okinawa. The islands are a popular tourist destination and are known as home to a variety of native plants and animals.[1]

Police said the tourists' actions were detected after one of the hotel workers in Amami became suspicious of the suitcases carried by guests at the hotel. He then reported it to environmental authorities. "They heard a noise coming from a suitcase that was stored," a police officer said. Officers then arrived at the hotel and found spiral-shelled hermit crabs packed into six suitcases. When they returned to the hotel, the three men were arrested for possessing these animals without a valid permit. It is not known why the three men were transporting the crustaceans. Police did not provide further details about the species, but said the seized hermit crabs are classified as "national natural monuments" in Japan due to their cultural and scientific value, and are protected under Japanese law.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

Femicide Murder Case Occurred in Pandeglang Banten in 2023

The term femicide emerged in relation to allegations in the murder case of a student named Elisa Siti Mulyani (21) who was murdered by her ex-boyfriend, Riko Arizka (23) in Pandeglang, Banten 2023. It is known in this case that the perpetrator killed Elisa because he was annoyed that Elisa had a new boyfriend. The National Commission on Violence Against Women considers Elisa's murder to be femicide. So what is meant by femicide in Elisa's murder case? What does femicide mean? According to the Big Indonesian Dictionary (KBBI), the term femicide means the murder of a woman by a man because of his hatred of women.[1]

The term femicide was first used by Diana Russel at the International Tribunal on Crimes Against Women (1976) and placed it as "misogynistic murder of women by men". Launching its official website, the National Commission on Anti-Violence Against Women (Komnas Perempuan) explains the definition of femicide according to the General Assembly of the United Nations (UN) Human Rights Council (HAM) as follows. According to the UN Human Rights Council General Assembly, the definition of femicide is the murder of women driven by hatred, revenge, conquest, control, enjoyment and the view of women as property so that they can do whatever they want. Therefore, femicide cases are different from ordinary murders because they contain aspects of gender inequality, domination, aggression or oppression. Femicide is not a death as is common but a product of patriarchal and misogynistic culture and occurs in both the private, community and state spheres.[2] A similar case also happened to a model, Valeria Marquez, a beauty content creator from Mexico.

This is the biggest wave of layoffs since the company laid off 10,000 employees in 2023.

Since the beginning of this year, Microsoft has indeed started a performance-based employee reduction that has targeted hundreds of employees. This latest wave of layoffs adds to the long list of efficiencies carried out by the giant technology company over the past two years. More than a year ago, Microsoft also laid off 1,900 employees from the Activision Blizzard and Xbox divisions.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

A woman in Greece has shocked the public after deciding to divorce her husband of 12 years. The cause? ChatGPT, a chatbot created by OpenAI, which "predicted" that her husband was cheating based on a photo of coffee grounds in a cup. This unique story was shared directly by the husband when he appeared on a Greek morning TV show. He told how his marriage was on the brink because of allegations of infidelity that were 'confirmed' by ChatGPT. From the husband's story, the problem began when his wife found out about a trend on social media, where users were asking ChatGPT to "read" the coffee grounds in a cup - a kind of modern version of tasseography or the art of reading fate from coffee grounds. The wife tried this. After making coffee for the two of them, she took a photo of the coffee residue left in the cup and sent it to ChatGPT for 'interpretation'.[1]

The result? ChatGPT claimed that her husband was cheating on her with a mysterious woman with the initials "E" who would be "destined" to be with him. Furthermore, the chatbot said that the wife's coffee cup showed that the other woman was trying to destroy their family. The results of this AI 'prediction' made the wife furious. Without thinking, she immediately asked her husband to leave the house, told the children they were getting a divorce, and immediately contacted her lawyer to file for divorce. Three days after the incident, the husband received an official court letter. Although he refused to sign the divorce papers, he is now facing legal proceedings. His lawyer argued that the ChatGPT prediction-based accusations were baseless, and that his client was innocent until proven guilty.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

The Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) has spoken out regarding the mass blocking of bank accounts. The blocking of the accounts went viral on social media. PPATK Head Ivan Yustiavandana said that the cessation of transactions on dormant accounts was in the public interest. The use of dormant accounts controlled by other parties is one of the modes that is prone to misuse in illegal activities. Dormant accounts are a banking term used to describe bank accounts that have not had any transactions for a long time, such as withdrawals, deposits, or transfers in a certain period.[1]

Therefore, his party with its authority based on Law No. 8 of 2010, has temporarily suspended customer transactions with accounts that are declared dormant based on banking data. "This step is an implementation of the National Movement for the Prevention and Eradication of Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing carried out by PPATK and other stakeholders and also as part of PPATK's efforts to protect the public interest and maintain the integrity of the Indonesian financial system. The temporary suspension of dormant account transactions aims to provide protection to account owners and prevent misuse by irresponsible parties," said Ivan.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

Law Concerning Telecommunications Considered Out of Date

Team of Hukumindo

Previously, the www.hukumindo.com platform has talk about "Tips to Overcome Fraud Using Social Engineering Mode", "The Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries of Indonesia has arrested an Illegal Chinese Ship in Bali", you may read also "Burberry Plans to Lay Off 1,700 Employees" and on this occasion we will discuss about 'Law Concerning Telecommunications Considered Out of Date'.

Law Number 36 of 1999 concerning Telecommunications is considered out of date and no longer relevant to the increasingly massive technological developments today. The government has also been asked to review the law so that the domestic industry can be sustainable in the future. The Association of Indonesian Telecommunications Providers (ATSI) revealed that the definition of telecommunications is now broader, no longer limited to telephone services as in the past. "Can telephone services via applications be defined as telecommunications services? The law says it is a telecommunications service because the definition of any telecommunications that conveys voice from A to B is telecommunications. But, in fact (currently) it is not," said Deputy Chairman of ATSI Merza Fachys.[1]

"They (over the top/OTT services) are free, not telecommunications services because if that is stated as telecommunications services, then there are other demands, right, there must be QoS (Quality of Service), it must be like this. There are rules that must be met, there must be no dropped calls, this and that. Meanwhile, telephones still follow all of that, we must report QoS every month. So, what about this?," said Merza. Still referring to the Telecommunications Law, Merza said that in it it alludes to industry players being divided into two, namely network providers and service providers. Meanwhile, on the other hand, digital providers have emerged that are not included in the rules because the situation is very different, especially since they are not subject to obligations like network providers or service providers. For this reason, ATSI asked the government to formulate the meaning of digital services which then also updated the 16-year-old Telecommunications Law. "I apologize to those who are pitiful, I say that the ones who are pitiful are telecommunications players because their obligations are still the same as before.

Fraud often uses the name of a bank or certain institution. One of the methods is to ask the victim to access a link, ask for personal data, and some even ask to download an application via text message or phone call. Fraud with this method is called social engineering fraud. Quoting from Bank Mandiri's official social media, this fraud trick is to manipulate the victim's psychology so that they unknowingly provide important information such as credit/debit card numbers and expiration dates, PINs, Card Verification Value (CVV), Card Verification Code (CVC) passwords, and One Time Password (OTP) codes.[1]

After that, the fraudster also sends a link to a fake application (fake apps) that is similar to the official application of a certain institution. When the victim downloads the fake application and logs in, the victim's personal data can be directly accessed by the fraudster. Not only that, fraudsters also have other methods such as offering services or assistance (another term is Quid Pro Quo). In fact, this offer of assistance is used by fraudsters to try to convince potential victims to provide information or take certain actions. Another mode of fraud is through electronic mail (email) or email, or commonly called fake messages (phishing). Fraudsters send emails or messages claiming that the message is from a bank or other party, which is used as an opportunity to obtain sensitive information belonging to the victim.[2]

Related to this, Bank Mandiri provides tips to avoid the above fraud. First, do not click on any suspicious links from unknown numbers. It is better to just ignore the link. Second, it is advisable to always check the original source or official account of the relevant agency if you intend to upload a particular application or site. Third, always maintain the confidentiality of personal data such as OTP, credit/debit card number, card expiration date, CVV/CVC, and PIN number. Finally, fourth, it is necessary to apply a sense of suspicion if offered suspicious things. It would be better to contact the official account or official call center directly to obtain the validity of the information and avoid fraud.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

The Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) has arrested an illegal Chinese ship in the waters south of Bali. The arrest, which was carried out through the Directorate General of Marine and Fisheries Resources Supervision (PSDKP), began with the ship's unusual movements. "This ship was sailing without complying with international regulations through its irregular sailing," said PSDKP Director General Pung Nugroho Saksono during a press conference in the Benoa Harbor area, Denpasar, Bali. Nugroho revealed that six crew members (ABK) were also secured in the arrest of the ship which was carried out. According to him, officers have been monitoring the movement of the foreign ship for the past few days. "From Sumatra it entered our southern waters (Bali) and there it went around," he added. Nurgoho said that officers had coordinated with the fuel oil agent in Bali. When invited to enter, he continued, the ship from China did not dare to enter. "We became increasingly suspicious there, so we sent out a ship to give chase," he said.[1]

Officers became increasingly suspicious when the written document permit stated that the ship was a fishing vessel. However, there were no fish or fishing gear on board. "We investigated further, there were no Immigration documents, no passports. He was already in our territory about two miles from the coast. This is a violation of territory, shipping, and Immigration," said Nugroho. The Directorate General of PSDKP has handed over evidence of the Chinese-flagged ship to the Bali Police's Ditpolairud (Directorate of Water and Air Police). In addition, six crew members were also handed over for further legal proceedings.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

The famous British fashion brand, Burberry, announced that it will gradually cut around 1,700 employees globally over the next two years. This is done as an effort to reduce operational costs. The famous British fashion company is currently experiencing an operational loss of 3 million pounds sterling or equivalent to IDR 66.21 billion (exchange rate of IDR 22,073/pounds) in the first quarter of 2025. This amount is recorded to have decreased drastically when compared to the same period the previous year where the company still recorded a profit of 418 million pounds sterling or IDR 9.22 trillion.[1]

Joshua Schulman, Burberry's chief executive, said the company is currently planning to immediately implement a strategic plan titled 'Burberry Forward' to restore the luxury clothing brand's reputation, improve the company's performance, and encourage the creation of sustainable long-term value. This mass layoff plan is not the first time the British fashion brand has done this. Previously, the company had also announced employee cuts in 2025. At that time, the company cut around 400 employees after Burberry lost around a third or more than 30% of its stock market value in the first four months of 2024.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

A former SpaceX employee with Crohn’s disease (a debilitating inflammatory bowel disease that requires frequent bathroom visits or risks an unpleasant incident) says his bathroom visits were closely monitored by the company and he was fired for taking too long in the bathroom. Douglas Altshuler, a 58-year-old former employee at Elon Musk’s space company, was threatened with termination if he used the bathroom too often, according to a federal discrimination lawsuit.[1]

Even though Douglas provided management with a doctor’s note outlining her condition, her complaint was deemed unfounded. She was eventually fired for poor performance. The lawsuit also alleges that SpaceX denied her proper meal breaks, exposed her to toxic chemicals, and cut her pay. It’s another incident that highlights the mistreatment of employees at Elon Musk’s company, from racism at Tesla to serious injuries at SpaceX.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

Gresik Money Multiplier Shaman Cheats His Victims Hundreds of Millions Rupiah

Fraud modes in the digital era are increasingly diverse. Ironically, more traditional types of fraud with spiritual modes may re-emerge. As happened in Gresik in 2022-2023. Where, a fake shaman cheated hundreds of millions of rupiah by doubling money through a ritual involving 'jenglot'. The fake shaman was named Mulyanto (43) alias Abah Yanto. The fraud was revealed from a report by one of MY's followers who claimed to have lost hundreds of IDR 565 million. The police immediately raided a rented house in Perum Grand Verona Regency Blok F7 and arrested Abah Yanto.[1]

The victim reported that he had given money to be doubled to Abah Yanto twice. In July 2022, the victim gave IDR 65 million. The remaining IDR 500 million was given in August 2022. The perpetrator promised that the victim would double his money to IDR 3.9 billion. During a year of renting in the housing complex, namely from 2022-2023, local residents thought that Mulyanto was opening an ordinary alternative medicine practice. It turned out that many believed that Abah Yanto was able to double money. To local residents, when he first moved into the rented house, Mulyanto admitted that he was a massage therapist. That was what Irwan, one of Mulyanto's neighbors, said.[2]

Irwan added that many people had visited his house. The blood was used to pour on a 'keris' that was said to be able to suck blood and to feed the 'jenglot' in order to convince the victims and potential victims. "The perpetrator's method is to use blood in a money-doubling ritual. The blood will later be poured into a container. Then the keris is dipped to suck the blood. The same goes for the jenglot," said Ipda Luthfi, a police officer from the Gresik Police Station. Meanwhile, the perpetrator used play money to trick the victims by showing it off in a suitcase. The play money was stacked and bundled with the top of each bundle given a real bill and then placed in the suitcase. The suitcase became a kind of proof that he could really multiply money up to 10 times, so that his victims trusted him with a large amount of money.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

Turkish authorities burned 20 tons of seized marijuana in the eastern Turkish city of Lice on April 18, 2025. The burning produced a cloud of smoke and affected the entire population of the area. The burning of the marijuana caused intoxication and health problems for the 25,000 residents. It also sparked anger among the residents.[1]

The massive drug eradication operation was led by the Lice District Gendarmerie Command and caused thick smoke to billow across the city for days. Residents of the area also experienced symptoms of poisoning, including dizziness, nausea and hallucinations. Authorities used 200 liters of diesel fuel to burn the marijuana. However, critics called the disposal method unprofessional.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
