A strong show of force was carried out by ministry personnel on the scene in those suburbs to prevent lawbreakers from fleeing the area, said the statement.
After thorough vetting, 1,786 of the people arrested were let go because their residency status were deemed correct, said the statement.

It stressed that all expat residents must carry with them at all times proof of identification documents to avert being arrested and potentially at some point being deported, said the statement.

Further, it urged businesses, citizens, and residents to make sure that those whom they hire for work have valid residency permits and not to hire anyone with no residency documentation or with an expired one to avoid legal accountability.
