A grand jury indicted nine illegal immigrants on allegations they used false documents to get jobs at two amusement parks now being investigated for possible employer sanction violations.

Prosecutors said Monday that no employer sanctions allegations have been filed against the Golfland Entertainment locations in Mesa and north Phoenix where the nine people worked.

The investigation of the company continues, and the business maintains it was following the law. Arizona's employer sanctions prohibits businesses from knowingly hiring illegal immigrations.

The nine were being held without bond because a voter-approved law denies bail to illegal immigrants accused of committing serious felonies.

All nine were charged with forgery. Six also were charged with taking the identity of another person .
