Three irregular migrants have been expelled from the country and returned to their country of origin in East Africa, the Ministry for Home Affairs, Security and Employment said.
The Ministry said in a statement that they were not refugees, and in recent days the Court has rejected the second interim measure they filed against the Chief Immigration Officer.
“For several years these people have refused to cooperate with the immigration authorities, with some of them submitting several applications for asylum – applications that have never been accepted as they are not eligible for it,” said the Ministry.
It added that this work also complements another return operation, which the Police successfully conducted against another immigrant who came through another European country and who refused to leave voluntarily.
108 irregular migrants have been returned to their country of origin in recent months after entering the country irregularly and were not eligible for asylum, the Ministry said. “This figure excludes those persons who were expelled by the Immigration Police in their daily work.”

Why are they irregular migrants?? Something wrong with their bowel movements? If they entered Malta without permission, they are illegals. They have broken the law and should be on the next plane out. Are we now to expect the government to gaslight us every time one of these characters turns up?
We have more ‘illegal’ than ‘legal’ people in the Malteses Islands. It’s high time the authorities start considering doing something to send these people out of our country, including the large number of Indians, Nepalese, Serbs, Albanians & Philippines, which are seen in every corner of our eyes. These people are mostly irregular here and not part of the EU. Are we waiting for them to take over. Does the government really think that the Maltese don’t want to work? Give them a decent salary and good working conditions and we wouldn’t need foreigners working here.
Ok yes I agree but I have seen other nations doing work Maltese won’t do but then its the same in the UK but with the UK people don’t want to work for minimum wage etc.
