Department
Nassau, Bahamas - There has been
a noticeable increase in the number of Haitian migrants attempting to
gain entry illegally into The Bahamas over the past six months and,
in particular, during the last two weeks. The Government of The
Commonwealth of The Bahamas wishes to remind the general public of its
long standing policy with respect to illegal entry into its territory
from all countries including Haiti.
Following the
January 12th earthquake, the Government of
The Bahamas was understanding and responsive by temporarily suspending
its apprehension exercises with respect to Haitians residing illegally
in its territory. Further the Department of Immigration issued
permits “To Reside” to one hundred and two (102) persons who were
detained at The Bahamas Detention Centre, Carmichael Road.
Having regard
to the recent heightened infringement of Bahamas Immigration Law, notice
is hereby given that with immediate effect, all illegal immigrants are
requested to leave The Bahamas voluntarily.
All persons
who are here illegally are in contravention of the laws of The Bahamas,
and are advised to return to their country of origin or be subject to
apprehension and deportation.
Persons who
are found to be in The Bahamas illegally will be repatriated forthwith.
