SOUTH AFRICA yesterday deported 261 Zimbabweans who were living in that country illegally while 300 more such immigrants are expected to arrive at Beitbridge Border Post today.

This follows the expiry of the July 31 deadline for them to regularise their papers.

The first batch of 261 Zimbabweans arrived here around midday yesterday in a convoy of four buses under heavy security.

The deportees underwent rigorous screening at Lindelani Holding Centre in Johannesburg.
