Dodgy Irish roofers chucked out by DIBP
Anyone else seen this?
24 Irish nationals, including children, are in a Perth detention centre awaiting deportation after Western Australia police investigated seven members of the group over an alleged suburban roofing scam.
A total of 26 people, including children, were detained by the Department of Immigration and Border Protection but two have been released.
Police arrested five men and two boys, both 17, on Thursday over allegations they had been posing as employees of a roof repair business and going door to door in Perth suburbs in an an attempt to scam elderly residents.
On Friday police said a further 19 people, all women and children, had been detained by the Department of Immigration and Border Protection. “All 26 of these overseas nationals have had their visas cancelled and they are remanded pending deportation to Ireland,” a police spokeswoman said.
WA Liberal senator and assistant immigration minister Michaelia Cash said the department detained 26 people but only cancelled the visas of 24.
Cash said the Irish nationals had violated the “no work” conditions of their visas.
