The furious 35-year-old Indonesian man reportedly began to scream and curse at Orme.

But the Brit is said to have chased the man and punched him in front of a supermarket in the Ubud district.

The Indonesian man allegedly suffered a cut cheek and a nosebleed from the blows.

He lodged a complaint with cops after seeking treatment at the Sanjiwani Hospital.

Officers arrested Orme at his hotel on May 3, after which he was seen in an orange jumpsuit being paraded to the media today.

AKBP Umar, Gianyar Regency Police Chief, said: “We have secured evidence in the form of the suspect’s passport, a red Honda CBR motorbike, and a red and black full-face helmet.

“In England he is indeed a boxer, and he is in Bali as a tourist.

“We will not be deporting him, but we will carry out the legal process according to the direction of the Regional Police Chief.

“Anyone who commits an act of violence, we will process it according to applicable law.”

Police say he will be charged with assault, with a maximum jail term of five years.

Cops describe the Brit as having an athletic build and a “sharp gaze as if he wants to kill everyone he sees”.
