Police arrested three illegal immigrants during a police operation.

A back to basics festive season operation was held in Springs on Wednesday.

The operation was held from 9am to 1pm under the leadership of Col Doctor Mthimkhulu, head of Springs SAPS Visible Policing (Vispol).

The purpose of the operation was to retrieve illegal firearms, to curb illegal mining and to prevent robberies and murders at Grootvlei Mine and Dersley.

According to police spokesperson Capt Johannes Ramphora it was a successful operation.

“We have arrested three illegal immigrants,” he says.

The illegal immigrants were taken to the police cells where they will remain until their first court appearance.

Ramphora says they will be taken to Lindela Repatriation Centre in Krugersdorp – South Africa’s deportation centre for illegal immigrants.
