he Denpasar District Court has handed down a sentence of a Rp 500,000 (US$30.13) a fine of Rp 500,000 (US$30.13), or seven days behind bars, to a woman identified as Suyati for trading a long-tailed macaque (Macaca fascicularis) at Satria Market in Bali\u2019s provincial capital.<\/p>\n

Satria Market is the most popular traditional market selling animals and birds in the island province.<\/p>\n

The court found Suyati guilty of charges related to illegal trade of wildlife as regulated in Bali Provincial Bylaw No. 5\/2023 on maintaining public order, peace and protection.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe suspect\u2019s act could be categorized as animal cruelty,\u201d said I Wayan Anggara Bawa, an investigator with the Bali Public Order Agency (Satpol PP), citing Article 28, paragraph 1 of the bylaw that prohibits acts of cruelty against animals or livestock.<\/p>\n

The Sintesia Animalia Indonesia Foundation reported Suyati to authorities, following a tip-off from a foreign tourist who visited the market and saw a long-tailed macaque in a poor condition.<\/p>\n

The animal is now receiving intensive treatment from a veterinary team at the Umah Lumba rehabilitation center, under the management of the Jakarta Animal Aid Network (JAAN Indonesia).<\/p>\n
