Six Venezuelan nationals have been medically examined and are now under quarantine, after they were found by officers of the South Western Division Task Force on Tuesday.
Police report that a team of officers were on mobile patrol along the S.S Erin Road, Siparia around 11am, in the vicinity of China Gardens, when they noticed a group of people getting out of a passenger car.
The group was intercepted and police discovered six illegal Venezuelans – four males, a female and a child.
They were all detained, along with the driver, a 39-year-old TT national.
The group will be handed over to Immigration officials to be repatriated.
