MYANMAR deported four illegal entrants: a Ugandan, a Nigerian, a Kenyan and a Madagascan, who were involved in telecom fraud and other criminal activi­ties, via the Myanmar-Thailand Friendship Bridge II yesterday.

 

Myanmar authorities offi­cially handed the deportees the necessary legal documents to ensure their smooth repatria­tion. Between 30 January and 1 July 2025, a total of 9,180 un­documented immigrants were identified and detained in My­anmar. Of this number, 8,987 individuals have already been deported through Thailand to their respective countries, while arrangements are being made to deport the remaining 193 in­dividuals. These individuals are currently under detention while awaiting repatriation.
