Durban Raid | Police have arrested 120 undocumented migrants

More than 120 foreign nationals have been arrested following a police raid in the Durban city centre this morning. Police say they failed to produce proper documentation to prove they are in the country legally. The operation was a joint initiative between the police and the inner eThekwini Regeneration and Urban Management Programme to deal with crime and tackle problem buildings.

120 is literally nothing, there are thousands. Ranging from Europeans, Pakistani's, Latin Americans and other Africans etc, too who disregard SOUTH AFRICA'S immigration laws. South Africa needs to change its laws and SOUTH AFRICA needs to adopt capital punishment

[keeganwrathmall]

Are the government going to make it legal to evict non paying occupants of a building without going to court?

[mathamashasha]

Job well done, we are tired of people coming to our court & committing fraud & crime

[Kirsten]

Please tell us the nationalities of these criminals

[Mx.Dmg]

Its USD they should be interrogated as to who they got that cash from, seems frequent

[thanda-el]

Now they must get court papers to get to the rest of those buildings and request documents from these ppl, 120 is a small number.
