    Brazilians And Haitians Fail In Bid To Enter Us From Bahamas

    Brazilians And Haitians Fail In Bid To Enter Us From Bahamas

    The Brazilian immigrants who were apprehended in Grand Bahama.

    As of Wednesday, February 3, 2016

    #NEARLY a dozen Brazilian immigrants were discovered at a local resort in Freeport, and 27 illegal Haitians were brought back to Grand Bahama after a failed smuggling attempt into the United States early this week.

    #
    Bahamas immigration authorities reported that sometime around 10am on Monday they received information concerning a group of Brazilians who were preparing to take steps to be smuggled to the United States.

    #A team of officers, headed by Senior Immigration Officer Jerome Hutcheson, went to a hotel in Grand Bahama where they discovered some 10 men in five rooms.

    #
    The men had all entered The Bahamas legally from Brazil and were landed in Nassau on different dates and were given various lengths of stay in the country.


    #
    They told immigration officials that they stayed in Nassau for a few days before travelling to Freeport.


    #
    Authorities discovered that five of the men had been deported from the United States and were attempting to re-enter that country.


    #
    The group was taken to the Department of Immigration where they were processed.


    #
    On Sunday, a group of 27 illegal Haitian immigrants and a Bahamian were discovered aboard a vessel, which was intercepted by the US Coast Guard some 4.5 miles off the Lakeworth Inlet, Florida.


    #
    There were 14 men, 12 women, and one minor. The Bahamian man who was operating the boat was taken to Florida to face charges, but the illegal immigrants were brought back to The Bahamas and handed over to Bahamian authorities in Grand Bahama.

    #According to Department of Immigration press officer Napthali Cooper, the USCG Cutter Robert Yered arrived at Lucayan Harbour around 5.45pm on Sunday.

    #
    After being turned over to officials in Grand Bahama, the Haitians claimed that they had left Haiti and were at sea for seven days.


    #
    However, officials did not believe the group was at sea for that long given the good physical condition that they were in. It is believed that they had left The Bahamas because the vessel was operated by a Bahamian.


    #
    The Brazilians and the Haitians were flown to New Providence on Tuesday and taken to the Detention Centre to await repatriation.

    Maybe they should have just tried to stay in the Bahamas, instead of pressing their luck even further!

    On a related note how did the Dominican Republic not only deport some Haitians BUT also canceled their anchor babies' citizenship status? Looks like they found, at least in their case, a little closer legal reading works!

    http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/18/wo...ants.html?_r=0

    ".......The impending deportations stem from a law passed last year that requires all foreign-born workers to register with the government within a year or face deportation. The government has said it wants merely to get a grip on its migrant work force, and has promised to open a path to naturalization for those who register.

    But many here see the efforts as an extension of efforts to rid the country of a chunk of its Haitian population; Haitians account for about 85 percent of all migrant workers in the country. The law, which followed a 2013 court ruling to strip the citizenship of children born in the Dominican Republic to foreign parents, was seen by many in the human rights community as thinly veiled discrimination against the Dominicans’ darker-skinned neighbors.

    Dominican Republic officials bristle at such criticism, claiming that allowing illegal immigrants a path to naturalization is more generous than the policies of many countries, including the United States. Besides, many Dominicans feel as if their country is under siege by migrants and want to bring the flow of entrants under control.



    press-releases/dominican-republic-court-ruling-raises-mass-statelessness-threat

    "...The 11-2 decision of the constitutional court, dated September 23, found that the provision on citizenship in the 1929 Dominican constitution, which recognizes as a citizen anyone born in the country, should not apply to the children of parents who were not “legal residents” at the time of their birth, on the basis that their parents were “in transit”.

    It further ruled that as a result these children, and subsequent generations born on Dominican soil, are excluded from the citizenship guarantee provided by the constitution...."
