British OnlyFans Creator Arrested in Bali Under Indonesia's Strict Anti-Pornography Laws

BALI, Indonesia — A prominent British creator on the subscription platform OnlyFans has been arrested in Bali, Indonesia, on suspicion of violating the country's stringent anti-pornography statutes. Bonnie Blue, whose real name is Tia Billinger, was taken into custody last week along with 17 male tourists during a police raid, according to Australian media reports.

The 26-year-old social media personality is accused of producing and distributing explicit content as part of a promotional "BangBus" tour on the resort island. Indonesia, a Muslim-majority nation, enforces some of the world's strictest morality laws. If convicted, Blue could face a prison sentence of up to 15 years and fines reaching 6 billion Indonesian rupiah (approximately $541,000).

The Alleged "BangBus" Tour and Police Raid

Authorities in Bali initiated an investigation following public complaints about the activities of Blue and her group. Police allege she hired a bus to travel around the island filming explicit material with more than a dozen men, many of whom were young Australian tourists visiting for "Schoolies Week"—a traditional post-graduation celebration.

"Hey boys, those that're going to Schoolies and to those who are barely legal, cannot wait to meet you - and I'm in Bali, so you know exactly what that means," Blue wrote on social media ahead of the trip, according to police reports.

During the raid, law enforcement officials seized filming equipment, contraceptives, and the tour vehicle itself, which was branded with the words "Bonnie Blue's BangBus." Blue's passport has been confiscated, and she remains in police custody pending the investigation's outcome.

A Controversial Figure and Dubious "Record"

Bonnie Blue gained international notoriety earlier in 2025 for making a sensational and unverified claim: that she had broken the world record for the number of sexual partners in a single day. She asserted she had been with 1,057 men in just 12 hours, which would surpass the 2004 record set by American performer Lisa Sparxxx (919 partners in 24 hours). These claims, which were never substantiated, fueled her online fame and controversy.

Likely Outcome: Deportation Over Prosecution

While the potential legal penalties are severe, legal experts familiar with Indonesia's handling of similar cases involving foreign nationals suggest deportation is a more probable outcome than a lengthy trial and prison sentence.

Philo Dellano, a managing partner at a Jakarta-based immigration law firm, told news.com.au that while prosecution is possible, "if there is an 'invisible hand' that requests that she be deported, she can be transferred to the nearest immigration office, from where she will be deported from Indonesia."

Fifteen of the Australian men arrested alongside Blue have reportedly already been released. The case highlights the significant cultural and legal clash that can occur when foreign internet personalities, who often operate with relative impunity in their home countries, run afoul of conservative local laws in destinations like Indonesia.

Sheikh Gumi Alleges Foreign Powers are Financing Terrorists in Nigeria

Prominent Islamic cleric Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has accused unnamed foreign nations of supporting terrorist groups in Nigeria, citing a sudden reversal of security gains in recent months as evidence of external interference. In a significant and provocative claim, Nigerian Islamic scholar Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has alleged that international actors are providing backing to terrorists operating within the country. During an interview with the BBC Hausa Service, Sheikh Gumi pointed to deteriorating security in areas that had shown marked improvement. He specifically highlighted the Abuja-Kaduna highway, which had become safer for travelers, and the farmlands around Birnin Gwari in Kaduna State, where farmers had cautiously returned to their fields after years of abandonment. "The situation on the ground contradicts earlier signs of improvement," Gumi stated, arguing that the recent surge in attacks suggests renewed support for armed groups. "This sudden rever...

DSS Arrests Medical Doctor Accused of Supplying Drugs to Kwara Kidnapping Syndicate

Intelligence-led operation in Jebba uncovers healthcare professional allegedly aiding criminal networks. In a significant breakthrough, Nigeria’s Department of State Services (DSS) has apprehended a licensed medical doctor for his alleged role in supporting kidnapping gangs terrorizing parts of Kwara State. The arrest followed a targeted interception in the Jebba area, based on precise intelligence regarding the movement of supplies to criminal elements. According to security officials, the doctor was caught transporting medical provisions from Sokoto State intended for kidnappers operating within Kwara. This development suggests that recent security operations have been effective, leaving some gang members wounded and in urgent need of care. “These criminal networks are becoming increasingly desperate for medical assistance following sustained engagements with security forces,” a DSS official stated.
