Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Thirteen (13) Ethiopians were arrested in Victoria Falls at a house in the city where they were hiding after illegally entering the country, reported the Chronicle<\/b>.<\/p>\n

The Ethiopians allegedly entered Zimbabwe through an undesignated entry point from Zambia with the help of some locals as they were found at a house where they had been offered a hideout by the occupants.<\/p>\n

Police acted on a tip-off after a community member suspected that some foreigners were hiding at the house.<\/p>\n

Police then visited the house and found the foreigners without travel documents. The illegal immigrants, all men, range between late 20s to early 40s in age.<\/p>\n

Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) spokesperson for Matabeleland North Inspector Glory Banda could not readily comment on the issue as he was out of office on Monday, 25 December.<\/p>\n

Illegal immigration occurs in various parts of Africa and is attributed to poverty, conflict, political instability, and lack of economic opportunities in certain countries.<\/p>\n

Over the past few years, scores of illegal immigrants en route to South Africa have been intercepted by Zimbabwean authorities and deported.<\/p>\n
