Reports indicate that security operatives have arrested seven Ethiopians in Mtito Andei, Makueni County, Kenya for being in the country illegally.
According to reports, the suspects have been detained and preparations are ongoing to arraign them in Court.
In a similar incident last month, Police arrested ninety-one Ethiopian nationals who were in the country illegally during a crackdown in Kitengela, Kajiado.
According to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), the immigrants were arrested after an earlier attempt to escape from a house where they had been detained.
Many Ethiopians are arrested in the country as they attempt to transit to countries like Tanzania and South Africa.
