JOINT OPERATION TO WEED OUT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
*
A TERRITORY-WIDE OPERATION AGAINST ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION JOINTLY MOUNTED BY THE POLICE, THE LABOUR AND IMMIGRATION DEPARTMENTS HAS RESULTED IN THE ARRESTS OF 134 PEOPLE.
THE OPERATION IS PART OF THE GOVERNMENT'S CONTINUOUS EFFORT TO FLUSH OUT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
THE SUSPECTED ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS ARRESTED BY THE POLICE HAVE BEEN REFERRED TO THE IMMIGRATION DEPARTMENT. THOSE FOUND TO BE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WILL BE REPATRIATED.
A GOVERNMENT SPOKESMAN REITERATED TODAY (FRIDAY) THAT THERE WAS NO QUESTION OF ANY AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
"OUR LATEST OPERATION SHOULD DRIVE HOME THE POINT THAT THERE WILL BE NO CHANGE TO THIS POLICY. ANYONE FOOLISH ENOUGH TO BELIEVE OTHERWISE IS ONLY CHEATING HIMSELF, HE SAID.
"
THE SPOKESMAN STRESSED THAT APART FROM THROUGHOUT THE TERRITORY, THERE WAS NO LET-UP IMMIGRATION EFFORTS AT THE BORDER.
