Immigration Takes Action
Against Illegals
Saturday morning it was
Tamarindo's turn. Today,
tomorrow and the next is
unknown, as immigration
officials descend on
beach communities to
identify and control
illegal foreigners in
the country.
Along with the Policía
de Migración, members of
the Fuerza Pública, OIJ
and other police
agencies all partook in
the morning police
action to determine the
status of the large
number of foreigners in
the area.
Along with the
immigration action,
authorities were in
search of narcotics.
Using roadblocks and
visiting a number of
discos and bars in
Tamarindo, authorities
asked for identification
and documentation to
ascertain legal status.
75 foreigners were found
to not to have their
documents on hand, some
were taken to the local
police station.
Authorities say they
will be visiting other
communities during the
coming days, communities
like Tamarindo where
drug trafficking is a
problem and the presence
of illegals. |
