Haitians held in people smuggling probe

Two busloads of Haitian nationals are currently in custody after a covert operation intercepted them on the Mabura-to-Lethem Trail on  Saturday and law enforcers are investigating a possible smuggling ring, police sources yesterday said.

Police sources said that the nationals had come into the country and had given information to immigration that they were here for either business or vacation  in the capital.

It is unclear where they were headed but police believe that they have stopped a plan to smuggle them into Brazil.
